Cursor for iOS

Describe the Bug

When I am trying to start a remote control session on my iOS app with my Macbook Pro running I cannot select only a single workspace despite I have multiple workspaces added on the Macbook Cursor app.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch Cursor Desktop app
  2. Add multiple local workspaces with git tracking
  3. Open iOS app, start new session select Macbook Pro (Connected, active)
  4. Try to select a workspace, and there I only see a single one in the Active section, and see a lot more in the More section, but if I select any of those it switched from Remote to Cloud

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey @adradr, thanks for the report!
Quick workaround: fully quit Cursor on your Mac (Cmd+Q, not just closing the window), then reopen only the single workspace you want to control from your phone and start the session again. That one should then be selectable as a Remote target.

Right now only one workspace per Mac can register as a Remote target at a time, which is why the others fall back to Cloud when picked. This isn’t anything on your end. It’s an issue we’re tracking, and I’ll post here when there’s an update.
