Just impressed with the IDE. However, I often use the chat for multi-purpose, beside coding, as a chatgpt alternative.
Any plan for developing a cursor-chat app on mobile?

Hi @nxqbao
Right now, there aren’t any plans for that.
Is there any plan for iPad or Android Pad version?
There are no plans for that at the moment.
@deanrie I paid for cursor AI and am using it well, and I think it’s a crazy app.
And I want to use this on mobile.
If it’s okay, can I use my cursor authentication code to make it available for personal use on mobile?
It would be super convenient to chat with a cursor and just accept suggestions. Typing messages on a mobile device is quite comfortable, and reading diffs can also be made reasonably convenient.
The only thing left would be figuring out how to view the result on the same mobile device, but for some platforms, that’s quite solvable—for web development, for example.
I think this would be a killer feature—writing a project while lying on the couch.

It would also be nice if we could have a web version.
Similar to this: vscode.dev

I just want to chime in on this with my use case: I often work for hours in Cursor, and then I step away to go for a walk or eat some food, and that’s when ideas start coming to me. I’d love to just be able to pick up where I left off on a chat with Cursor that already has the context of my app and whatever feature I’m working on, and continue brainstorming straight from my phone.

Need this. The competitor, Replit already has mobile version, i think that will be new trend in future for ai code since we can do most things with AI.

+1 on this. A mobile app through which I can instruct the composer on how to make changes would be super useful!

I’m not giving up just yet but I did try to build a mobile version. The first blocker I experienced was that I was unable to access the content data stream or the input field via the vscode api because the cursor chat is closed source. There are still options but they are a lot hackier than just having access to the api. It would be nice if cursor could make some very basic elements of the ai editor open source so we could make our own cursor remote control, especially if they don’t plan to make one anytime soon.
I find myself glued to my computers controlling 3 instances of cursor working on multiple projects at the same time. I’m getting a lot done but given that a large amount of the syntax typing is now done by the agent and my instructions are in English, the ability to use something like Superwhisper or something actually integrated into mobile cursor to speak prompts in on the go would be life changing. My dog would get more exercise, I’d leave my house more often, I could snipe some fixes here and there while I’m doing errands. Cursor would make more money.
And I have started working my code relay app into roo code since that’s at least open source and would allow me to make some progress… but despite all the moaning around here as someone who has actively tried the alternatives, nothing feels as good as cursor, and when I get something that seems like it might be a little more productive than cursor, it’s costing me $10 an hour or more in anthropic api credits. $200-300 a month for the amount of cursor use I put in feels worth it to me… $10 an hour would put me at like $2000+ a month and I’m just not cool with that. It’s not building itself and is actual work, either method of development.
I need cursor mobile. Please expose enough of your api to vscode so I can build a basic one that doesn’t ■■■■ or build one for us. I’d pay another fee to use it as I explained above, it would greatly increase my quality of life and many others.

doing github copilot workspace on iphone safari. vscode.dev route seems to be easy cause cursor is vs fork. we just want to vibe while hiking

+1 for Cursor mobile app, so you can take over the current running Agent from your desktop so you can keep interacting with the Agent from your mobile phone and accept/decline/revert code and tool calls.
The first AI IDE that will implement this, will have a huge advantage in winning the race of being the dominant one.
Think about a life after IDE’s which is coming sooner than later, this would be a great first step towards it.

A mobile app would be super helpful for brainstorming ideas while taking an Uber, waiting in the airport, etc.
I’d be happy to pay for this feature. You should prioritize it @deanrie!

Hey, thanks for the feedback, actually we are planning it.

I read on reddit that this was planned indeed; could you verify that this will work by connecting (via some sort of tunnel) to the desktop app? So you can effortless jump to/from your laptop/desktop (leave it on obviously)?

How much would you pay? 
to this. The initial idea seemed like overkill imo, and I wouldn’t have expected a use case until now.
- We’re been pushing our Product team to ask Cursor about how a feature works before coming to Engineering. That’s made a significant improvement and keeps work on engineeringemoving along.
2.Another idea I saw listed here was background agents. It would be great to see their final ouput and then send some follow-up long after I’ve left the desk
I’m always open to a call and can send you some availability to discuss or vice-versa if there’ anything more useful over. a live share.
