Mobile MCP is an open-source Model Context Protocol server from Mobile Next that lets AI agents and LLMs operate real mobile apps — on iOS and Android, across emulators, simulators, and physical devices. With nearly 10,000 stars on GitHub and active development in 2026, it gives agents structured control of phones without requiring platform-specific automation code.
Agents interact with devices through a platform-agnostic interface: they can inspect the screen as a structured accessibility snapshot, fall back to coordinate-based taps derived from screenshots, type text, swipe, launch apps, and capture screenshots. Because it speaks MCP, it plugs directly into Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, GitHub Copilot, and other MCP hosts. The same server can drive devices attached to your own machine or — through Mobile Next Cloud — reserve real devices from a cloud fleet, with tools for logging in, listing, allocating, and releasing remote devices. That split makes it practical for both a solo developer testing on a desk phone and a team that needs many real devices on demand.
Freemium. The Mobile MCP server is free and open source (Apache-2.0) for use with your own devices and emulators. Mobile Next Cloud — the hosted fleet of real iOS and Android devices — is a paid service.
Mobile developers, QA engineers, and agent builders who want AI assistants to drive apps on real devices for testing, automation, or data collection — without maintaining separate iOS and Android automation stacks.
