Describe the request
It would be great if you would release Cursor mobile app for android users, so that anyone could access it not just from ios.
Hey thanks for the feature request. There’s no native Android app yet. But on Android you can already work through Cloud Agents in the web. Open cursor.com/agents in Chrome and add it as a PWA using Add to Home screen. You’ll get an experience close to the app with the same account and the ability to launch and monitor agents from your phone.
We see the demand for Android and are taking it into account. But I can’t give a specific timeline. If you’d like you can check the other thread and add your voice there to keep the signal in one place: When can we expect to have native Cursor mobile app?
Strong support for a native Cursor Android app
I would strongly support this request. I am a long-time, heavy Cursor user and currently subscribe to the $200/month Ultra plan.
Now that Cursor has an iOS app, I hope Android users can receive the same native mobile experience rather than relying only on the web interface or PWA.
The most useful Android features for me would be:
- Starting and monitoring Agent tasks remotely
- Continuing existing Agent conversations across desktop and mobile
- Receiving reliable background notifications when an Agent finishes or needs input
- Reviewing diffs, approving changes, and replying to clarification requests
- Sharing files, screenshots, links, and prompts directly from Android
- Synchronizing Agent status and conversation history in real time
The current web/PWA option is useful as a temporary solution, but a native Android app would provide more reliable notifications, background behavior, file sharing, deep links, and a much smoother mobile experience.
I hope Android support can be added to the roadmap, especially as many professional and international users primarily use Android devices.
+1 on this request.
I will provide some additional context of my need, because I imagine this would be helpful!
My need: My local environment has everything for set-up for development and analysis, repos already cloned, skills installed, conversations with appropriate context, and credentials set. Sometimes I am on the move or unable to access my computer, but have an ongoing work that I would like continue where I’ve stopped.
What I would like: On my phone continue an existing conversation running commands on my computer remotely. From an UX standpoint just accessing the same chat (no canva, no access to files, or web) that can run commands locally would already unblock me. Screenshots of the computer would be helpful, but from the my core need it would be a should-have not a must-have.
I have considered creating a ssh connection and using the CLI (or even using Claude with has a refined CLI experience), but I prefer Cursor and still wouldn’t give me access to the my previous chats.
I imagine this is exactly what the iOS app delivers, but just to be clear of what would be must-haves, should-haves and delighters from my perspective in case this could help determine the MVP to test adoption.
If you do start developing the Android app I would love to be considered as an Alpha and Beta tester!
Adding my support here - only reason I’m hanging on to competing products is they have the native android app support.
I am also adding my voice to this request. Apart from what Nilson describes, I also want to do the design work directly on my tablet, using local drawings and a git repo to flesh out specs that I can pass on to an agent on one of my workstations. I work in games, and cloud agents are not really useful since the environment is very large.
+1 for this
Would highly apprecaite native android app as well!
I’m tired of getting updates about the IOS app and its cool features.
Is it planned as part of your roadmap?
Shortcut a chrome browser page isn’t a solution.

+1 for Native Android App — Created an account just to support this!
As a paying Cursor Pro + user, I finally created a forum account today for the sole purpose of adding my voice to this request.
Seeing iOS receive a dedicated native app while Android users are left relying on PWAs and browser shortcuts is frustrating. While PWAs work as a temporary fallback, they simply cannot deliver the level of OS integration required for serious mobile developer workflows.
For anyone running background agents or managing tasks away from their primary workstation, a native Android client is a game-changer. The core capabilities we desperately need are:
-
Reliable background push notifications when an Agent finishes a task, hits an error, or requires user input.
-
Seamless agent monitoring & approval (reviewing diffs, approving code execution, responding to clarification prompts).
-
Cross-device state continuity to pick up desktop conversations on mobile without losing context.
-
Native OS intent sharing (sharing links, screenshots, or code snippets directly into Cursor from other apps).
Android accounts for a massive portion of developers globally. Treating Android as a secondary platform creates an unnecessary gap in user experience.
Please consider adding native Android support to the official roadmap. Happy to jump in as an alpha/beta tester whenever needed!

+1 for this request, I’m ultra plan user and i would like to have possibility to remote control of my local agents on pc. This is really annoying now, even chatGPT have it already in their app, and Claude for some time. I think habits changing with AI right and it’s necessary to move/unblock agents even when not sitting infront of computer.
Thanks everyone for the details. I can see this topic matters to a lot of users, and for some of you the key point isn’t the Android app itself, it’s being able to keep using and controlling local agents from your phone (Nilson, kuba, Lukas).
Status is unchanged. There’s no native Android app yet, and I can’t share a specific timeline or promise a roadmap. We do see the demand for Android and we’re taking it into account.
What you can already use on Android today is Cloud Agents in the web app. Open cursor.com/agents in Chrome and add it as a PWA via Add to Home screen. It uses the same account, backend, and sign-in as iOS and desktop. You can start and monitor agents, continue conversations, and review changes. Yes, it’s not a full replacement for a native app when it comes to background notifications and OS integration, you’re right.
Ditto on creating a forum account. Doesn’t say much for Cursor that they can’t just have their AI agents port the iOS app to Android!
+1 Android App
Thanks for reply. I think cloud Agents is not the proper replacement as you have to have github repo connected to cloud, this is quite difference in comparison with local agent and local workflows.
+1 for a native Android app!
Many users here seem to be looking for a way to use Cursor on Android tablets/devices. Until an official native app is released, I’d like to share a quick CLI-based workaround that I currently use on my Android tablet, along with the detailed setup steps.
Disclaimer: This is purely a temporary workaround. It runs inside a proot environment, so you still need to manually mount and map directories, and it cannot directly interact with native local files or system data. A native Android app is still very much needed for a smooth experience!
Workaround: Running Cursor CLI via Termux + Ubuntu
1. Install Termux & proot-distro
-
Download and install Termux (recommended from F-Droid for the latest build).
-
Open Termux and update the packages:
Bash
pkg update && pkg upgrade -y -
Install
proot-distro(to manage Linux distributions easily):Bash
pkg install proot-distro -y
2. Install & Launch Ubuntu
-
Install the Ubuntu distro:
Bash
proot-distro install ubuntu -
Log in to the Ubuntu environment:
Bash
proot-distro login ubuntu
3. Set Up Prerequisites inside Ubuntu
Update Ubuntu packages and install essential tools (curl, git, node, etc.):
Bash
apt update && apt upgrade -y
apt install curl git build-essential -y
4. Install & Authorize Cursor CLI
-
Download and install Cursor CLI:
Bash
curl -fsSL https://cursor.com/install.sh | bash -
Verify installation and log in:
Bash
cursor --version cursor login Or enter agent -
Follow the terminal prompt to open the browser link, authorize your Cursor account, and paste the code back into the terminal.
5. Accessing Storage / Mounting Folders
To access your tablet’s local files inside Ubuntu:
-
Grant Termux storage permissions in the main Termux shell (outside Ubuntu):
Bash
termux-setup-storage
Once you have the Cursor CLI running, you can interact with it, and it will handle mounting directories and other requirements itself; I’m still exploring more advanced ways to use it~
- You can then mount or bind local directories into your Ubuntu session (e.g., via
proot-distro login ubuntu --bind /sdcard/Download:/root/Download).
Hope this helps anyone who urgently needs CLI access on their tablet right now! But again, we definitely still need a native Android App for seamless file access and local workflow.
