Autonomous mobile GUI agents require accurate action reflection for reliable long-horizon execution. Existing approaches rely on open-ended multimodal reasoning after each action, which is costly and poorly matched to the structured nature of GUI state transitions.

The paper introduces GMA, a new benchmark for evaluating general mobile assistants in realistic, challenging scenarios. GMA expands on existing benchmarks by offering seven open‑source applications across diverse domains and 300 tasks organized into four difficulty tiers, ranging from simple actions to complex multi‑step workflows. The authors evaluate eight state‑of‑the‑art models, showing that performance drops sharply with task complexity, and conduct ablation studies on harness design—such as context retention and state tracking—to demonstrate how these choices can improve outcomes, especially for demanding workflows.

The paper introduces AnTrap, a benchmark that injects dynamic perturbations into Android GUI agent execution to evaluate robustness against runtime anomalies. It presents a taxonomy of anomalies across four layers—State, Thinking, Action, and Round—with ten subcategories, and a pipeline that maintains task solvability while adding realistic adversarial conditions. Experiments on 16 leading GUI models show universal vulnerability, and reinforcement learning can mitigate some traps but not deep contextual ones like state deadlock.

The paper introduces SEE, a two-stage framework for generating long-horizon GUI agent trajectories. First, an exploration stage builds an explicit UI transition graph over screens and elements. Second, a graph-based synthesis stage composes diverse multi-step trajectories through planning and controlled sampling, preventing spurious cycles and enabling long-horizon composition. Across real-world apps, SEE produces trajectories averaging 14.8 steps and improves agent task success and generalization to unseen screens.

We introduce State Transition Pretraining (STP) as a new scaling axis for GUI agents. During the STP stage, we continually pretrain a unified multimodal model on visual state transitions by jointly optimizing inverse dynamics (predicting actions from state changes) and forward dynamics (predicting next states from current states and actions).
