New framework enhances mobile GUI agents with persistent navigation memory

Researchers have developed TAG-Nav, a framework designed to enhance mobile GUI agents by providing persistent app-specific navigation knowledge. This system distills offline exploration into compact records of app functions, target pages, and routes, enabling agents to navigate to destinations without task-specific demonstrations. A new navigation-only protocol called DestBench was introduced to evaluate route finding, showing that TAG-Nav improved the navigation success rate of UI-TARS-1.5-7B from 52.4% to 58.3% and Qwen-VL-Max from 59.5% to 71.4%. The study highlights that the quality of the graph memory significantly impacts its value for navigation. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient and reliable mobile AI agents by improving their ability to navigate complex application interfaces.

    Not All Graphs Are Maps: A Task-Agnostic Exploration Framework for Mobile GUI Navigation

    arXiv:2610.22672v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern mobile GUI agents can perceive visible screens and execute local actions, but they still lack persistent app-specific navigation knowledge: where functions live, which pages contain them, and which screens are equivalent acro…
