Inquiry about Native Mobile App Automation (Android/iOS) similar to Pega Robotics for Desktop

Hello Pega Support Team and Community,

Our team has extensive experience using Pega Robotics to automate a wide range of desktop applications on the Windows OS. We are very familiar with its capabilities in creating UI-driven automations that interact with various controls of Windows applications.

We are now exploring the possibility of extending our automation capabilities to mobile platforms. My question is:

Does Pega offer a solution or a specific tool that allows for the automation of native applications on Android and/or iOS devices in a manner similar to how Pega Robotics Studio automates Windows applications?

To be specific, we are looking for a solution that can perform UI-level automation on a mobile device, such as:

  • Opening a specific third-party app (e.g., a social media app, etc.).
  • Navigating through the app’s screens.
  • Tapping buttons, entering text into fields, and scraping data from the screen.

Thank you for your time and guidance.

@ZheyuanL Pega does not currently have a product that performs robotic process automation on a mobile OS. Our platform applications are fully capable of running on iOS and Android, however they will not perform UI level interactions the way Pega Robotics can.

@ThomasSasnett Thank you for the response.
