The Android Automation Activities allows users to automate UI actions like **tapping, swiping, entering/getting text, as well as taking a screenshot** on an Android emulator or physical device using **UiPath Studio** and **Appium**, a test framework for mobile devices. The **Android Emulator Scope** will handle the connection between the device and Appium, as well launch the app/activity you'd like to run on the device. UI actions can be performed by dragging and dropping the appropriate activity into the scope and entering the selector/coordinates of the target UI element. Through this activity, you will be able to create workflows that interact with **mobile applications and mobile browsers** with relative ease. 

  

Usage of this activity package relies on several 3rd party software. They are as follows:

*   Appium
*   Java Development Kit
*   Android SDK (and Device/Emulator)
*   NodeJS (npm)

**For more information, download the guide under Resources.**
