With the intense use of applicative in mobile device, the question "usability begins to invigorate strongly as a study object, it is being considered a determinant factor of the success of this segment of the mobile computation. This article proposes an improvement way in the usability of the embedded applicative in mobile devices, considering a new method of user interaction. The Mandos interaction method is based on task idea, which consists in a possible operation that could be executed in an applicative by the user and probabilities between task changes. The cited probabilities will be used for construction of the user interface to interact dynamically with the user. To validate the considered method was developed a framework, called Mandos, which propitiates functionalities to the applicative developer that uses Java technology. A case study will be presented where some prototypes of embedded applicative mobile was developed, using Mandos framework for the interaction method evaluation. The evaluation was established in order to identify any relation of usability gain or loss of applicative, having like approvers the own users of the embedded applicative in mobile telephones.
