Mobile Easy Use: Open-Source MCP Tool Lets Coding Agents Debug Real Android/iOS Apps
James_CSH · reddit · 2026-09-11
Mobile Easy Use is an open-source tool that connects coding agents to running Android/iOS apps via MCP, addressing the classic "the request succeeded, so why didn't the list update?" problem that only runtime data can answer.
- UI automation: agents can click, type, scroll and take screenshots
- Runtime inspection: check business state, hook methods with Frida to see arguments/results, measure execution time and memory changes
- Live experiments: temporarily alter a return value or field to test another branch — e.g., flip a page's config flag, compare data and UI for both values, then restore
- Setup requires integrating into your debug build; an Integrate Skill provides platform guidance and the compatible MCP version
- MIT-licensed on GitHub
Useful both when deciding what to change and when verifying an implementation.
