In this paper, we present UITrans, the first automated UI translation tool designed for Android to HarmonyOS. UITrans leverages an LLM-driven multi-agent reflective collaboration framework to convert Android XML layouts into HarmonyOS ArkUI layouts. It not only maps component-level and page-level elements to ArkUI equivalents but also handles project-level challenges, including complex layouts and interaction logic. Our evaluation of six Android applications demonstrates that our UITrans achieves translation success rates of over 90.1%, 89.3%, and 89.2% at the component, page, and project levels, respectively. UITrans is available at https://github.com/OpenSELab/UITrans and the demo video can be viewed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqKOSmCnJG0.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.13693v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.13693v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a2h-a-ui-converter-from-android-to-harmonyos","repo_url":"https://github.com/openselab/uitrans","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
