DAC-Bench: A Decision-Aware Benchmark for Compositional Mobile GUI Tasks

Mobile GUI agents powered by LMMs can perceive screens and follow instructions, yet existing benchmarks largely target short, linear workflows and step-level accuracy, offering limited insight into long-horizon planning and decision-making under branching structures. We present DAC-Bench, a decisionaware benchmark with compositional tasks comprising 830 episodes and 11,345 action steps across 35 applications on Android and iOS. Tasks are organized into Sequential, Conjunctive, Conditional, and Hierarchical structures, reflecting real-world multi-step and branching interaction patterns. To complement standard step-level evaluation, we introduce weighted longest common subsequence to capture length-sensitive progress and decision accuracy for branch correctness. Evaluations across 7 diverse agents show substantial performance degradation compared to prior benchmarks, with success rates dropping below 5% on 6-8 step tasks and branch accuracy averaging 38%, highlighting challenges in conditional decision-making. By exposing these failure modes, DAC-Bench provides a challenging and diagnostic benchmark for advancing decision-aware mobile GUI agents.
