Hi community,

I would like to use Cursor on my Huawei tablet (running HarmonyOS / Android-based). Which build or package version should I download for this device? Is there an official mobile/tablet release, or a recommended workaround (like ARM Linux/Web/SSH)?

Thanks for the help!Hi community,

Hi @lei_jack Thanks for the post! There isn’t an official Cursor build for HarmonyOS or Android tablets, so there’s nothing tablet-specific to download. The desktop IDE is Windows, macOS, and Linux only, and the native mobile app is currently iOS-only.

Android is planned, but there’s no timeline we can share yet.

In the meantime, the best option on your tablet is the Cloud Agents web app:

  1. Open cursor.com/agents in your browser
  2. Sign in with the same Cursor account
  3. Use Add to Home screen so it installs like an app (PWA)

That gives you the same account and the ability to launch and monitor agents from the tablet. It isn’t a full local IDE, but it’s the supported path on Android-based devices today, and it doesn’t need Google Play.

If you want a native Android app, please add a +1 here so the request stays in one place:

Thanks @kevinn for the detailed response and recommendations!

Just to share my current workaround: I managed to get it running on my tablet by using Termux to set up a light Ubuntu environment and running the Cursor CLI inside it. It’s a decent temporary solution for now!

However, it’s definitely not a complete substitute for a native Android app. Since it runs in a proot/chroot environment, I still have to manually mount and map directories, and it can’t directly interact with local files and app data seamlessly.

I’ll definitely check out the Cloud Agents PWA and add my +1 on the native Android request thread. Thanks again!
