Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known limitation, touch interactions in the AI pane aren’t supported yet. Only mouse and keyboard work.

This isn’t a bug, it’s a missing feature right now. Similar reports:

- [AI Pane not responding to touch input](https://forum.cursor.com/t/ai-pane-not-responding-to-touch-input/145076)
- [Touch support in chat](https://forum.cursor.com/t/touch-support-in-chat/112753) (feature request)

I’ll pass your feedback to the team. The more users ask for it, the more likely it is to get prioritized.
