MobileViews: A Large-Scale Mobile GUI Dataset

Read the paper

MobileViews is a large-scale dataset designed to support research in mobile user interface (UI) analysis and mobile agents. Our first version — MobileViews-600K — contains over 600,000 mobile UI screenshot-view hierarchy (VH) pairs, collected from approximately 20,000 apps on the Google Play Store.

Dataset Overview

The dataset includes several .zip files, each containing screenshot-VH pairs and corresponding CSV index files, which map each screenshot to its respective view hierarchy (VH).

MobileViews_0-150000.zip (23 GB) and MobileViews_index_0-150000.csv: The first set of screenshot-VH pairs, containing IDs from 0 to 150000.
MobileViews_150001-291197.zip (36 GB) and MobileViews_index_150001-291197.csv: The second set of screenshot-VH pairs, containing IDs from 150001 to 291197.
MobileViews_300000-522301.zip (37 GB) and MobileViews_index_300000-522301.csv: The third set of screenshot-VH pairs, containing IDs from 300000 to 522301.
AppMetadata.csv: App metadata for 15,000 apps from the Google Play Store, retrieved in June 2024.

Index CSV Columns

Each index CSV file contains the following columns, mapping each screenshot to its corresponding view hierarchy:

Column	Description
`Image File`	Filename of the screenshot (e.g., 0.jpg)
`JSON File`	Filename of the view hierarchy (e.g., 0.json)

Example:

Image File,JSON File
300000.jpg,300000.json
300001.jpg,300001.json
300002.jpg,300002.json

Each .zip file contains both the screenshots (JPG) and view hierarchy files (JSON).

AppMetadata.csv Columns

The AppMetadata.csv file contains detailed information about each app. The columns are as follows:

Column	Description
`title`	App title
`installs`	Number of installs
`minInstalls`	Minimum number of installs
`realInstalls`	Real number of installs
`score`	App score (rating)

cd MobileViews
git lfs pull
```

File Verification

To ensure the downloaded files are complete and correct, you can verify them in multiple ways.

Verify Integrity Using zip -T:

zip -T MobileViews_0-150000.zip   # expected output: test of MobileViews_0-150000.zip OK
zip -T MobileViews_150001-291197.zip   # expected output: test of MobileViews_150001-291197.zip OK
zip -T MobileViews_300000-522301.zip # expected output: test of MobileViews_300000-522301.zip OK

Verify the Number of Files:

You can verify the number of .jpg and .json files inside the .zip:

# Check the number of JSON files
unzip -l MobileViews_0-150000.zip | grep ".json" | wc -l  # expected output: 150001
unzip -l MobileViews_150001-291197.zip | grep ".json" | wc -l  # expected output: 141197
unzip -l MobileViews_300000-522301.zip | grep ".json" | wc -l  # expected output: 222302

# Check the number of JPG files
unzip -l MobileViews_0-150000.zip | grep ".jpg" | wc -l  # expected output: 150001
unzip -l MobileViews_150001-291197.zip | grep ".jpg" | wc -l  # expected output: 141197
unzip -l MobileViews_300000-522301.zip | grep ".jpg" | wc -l  # expected output: 222302

Verify the File Size:

You can verify that the file sizes match the expected sizes:

du -sh MobileViews_0-150000.zip  # expected output: 23G
du -sh MobileViews_150001-291197.zip  # expected output: 36G
du -sh MobileViews_300000-522301.zip  # expected output: 37G

Verify Using SHA256:

We provide SHA256 checksum files to verify the integrity of the downloaded .zip files:
```
sha256sum -c MobileViews_0-150000.zip.sha256  # expected output: MobileViews_0-150000.zip: OK
sha256sum -c MobileViews_150001-291197.zip.sha256  # expected output: MobileViews_150001-291197.zip: OK
sha256sum -c MobileViews_300000-522301.zip.sha256  # expected output: MobileViews_300000-522301.zip: OK
```
If the output shows OK, the file has been downloaded correctly.

If the verification result is not as expected, the download may be corrupted. Please try downloading the file again. If the issue persists, feel free to contact us at any time.

How to Use

You can unpack the .zip files using the unzip command in the terminal or any other unzipping tool.

unzip MobileViews_0-150000.zip -d /path/to/extract/directory
unzip MobileViews_150001-291197.zip -d /path/to/extract/directory
unzip MobileViews_300000-522301.zip -d /path/to/extract/directory

This will extract the contents to the specified directory.
