Beyond Screenshots: Building Agent-Native Verification for Mobile Apps

As one of the founding Android engineers on Instagram Edits, this talk shares my first-hand lessons from making Instagram Edits on Android agentic.
Agentic coding has dramatically accelerated development output, but human verification cannot scale at the same rate. We built agentic verification to close that gap.
Today, our agents run 2,000+ verification workflows per week across agentic QA, developer feedback loops, stress testing, and debugging.
I’ll share how we made a complex mobile app discoverable, controllable, and verifiable by agents, and how that enables a broader agentic mobile development loop that improves both developer velocity and product quality.
