Creating a mobile app

Does anyone know how to create a proper cross compatible (or even not cross compatible) mobile app in Cursor?

I have tried to create 3 different apps using three different methods (5 overall attempts) and nothing will run properly on android.

Is there a boilerplate in git that I can use (which I have tried)? I’m not even sure where to go from here. I have blown hundreds of credits running the exact same fixes over and over and over again.

I would appreciate any help that I could get on this. I have 3 apps that I need to build and I was hoping to use Cursor to do so.

Thanks

Ive built several apps in Cursor, what exactly did you say in the beginning when starting out? I find an easy way to start is to write everything down first, then go to ChatGPT and post it, also mentioning that you’re writing this for Cursor, I also state to not write any code and to ask any questions about my project to get a better idea of what it is I am trying to achieve, I continue to do this until I have a clear outline, then I get ChatGPT to summarize everything, then I post it to Cursor.

Example:
I first start off with I am writing an Android app in Android Stdio using Kotlin - (I will then go to Android Studio and copy the about info and post it) - I will then write my idea in detail from GPT and post. Cursor will then create everything for me so I dont have to do the setup, then slowly start building.

It does help to have some programming knowledge, but not required.

This is what I’ve done and its worked for me.

I also make backups often, since AI makes mistakes and can dig a nasty hole of bad errors and not get out of it.
