Is it possible to determine what user button tapped using external app?

Im developing an app that can determine the name of the tapped button on existing application using the package name, is it possible?
 
No that's not possible. To start with, your app would need to receive an event notification for button press. Aside from the fact that events only happen in the current app, and do not propagate to other apps, the target app knows absolutely nothing about your app.
 
Thanks for the reply,
But is there a 1% hope?
how about to determine if the external app is running? or getting the logcat output?
