ByteDance’s new-generation Doubao phone has changed how it works with major apps including those from Alibaba and Tencent, according to a July 17 report cited by BlockBeats and sourced to LatePost. The device will no longer rely on GUI-based methods that read the screen after user authorization, simulate taps, and operate apps in a human-like way. Instead, the phone can connect only when those apps provide MCP services themselves, open part of their data, and allow control through that interface. A person close to the Doubao phone project said inventory for the new model has increased from 30,000 units to hundreds of thousands. The same person told LatePost that a phone cannot remain a technology experiment forever and ultimately still needs to be sold. The report points to both a technical and commercial adjustment in the rollout of the next Doubao phone.

Under the new approach, the phone will no longer read the screen after user authorization, simulate taps, or operate apps through GUI technology designed to act like a human user. Instead, Doubao phone can connect only if those apps provide MCP services on their own, open part of their data, and allow control through that framework.
