  • Abstract:
  • Mobile user interface design patterns have been widely used across different mobile platforms. UI design patterns have evolved and changed significantly as new trends emerge and fade at different times.In this paper we present a process to gain insights into mobile user interfaces on a large scale. Using the developed process we automatically disassemble and analyze the 400 most popular free Android applications. The results suggest that the complexity of the user interface differs between application categories. Further, we analyze interface layouts to determine the most frequent interface elements and identify combinations of interface widgets.
