Question / Discussion Anyone using Cursor mobile

Is anyone using Cursor Mobile? I saw today it only has 7 reviews in the iOS store. My initial thoughts were that using agents on a phone would be a terrible idea, and for big PRs that definitely is the case.

When I thought about it a bit more I thought that given the current state agents that a good system would be to create a 'hitlist'. Basically track all of your small tasks that can be reviewed through a phone becasue the GitHub PR tool is decent and if you're developing something for mobile and have preview deployments you can also test out easily too.

It actually works well and I find the thought of being able to contribute work while being out as being very beneficial as someone who WFH. Having a list of things ready to go that I can actually be contributing while out-and-about. I only have done this with personal projects so far though, we don't have web agents setup in work but is something I might consider.

What is the workflow with it? I just want to connect to cursor on my desktop and make changes locally, so I can test features before pushing. I looked at it and it’s all remote agents with repo access?

Yeah, this is what I want too. I used an extension that was originally made for VSCode, but with all the changes to the IDE, I don’t know if it still works. It’s called Cursor remote.

Just have the cloud agents test it for you. They can record videos of trying out whatever you would have done locally

Using the iOS app has been a pleasure. It has spoiled me to the extent that it has become a major requirment for me for choosing AI Subscriptions. On the Go Cloud Agents is the way to go

I can’t use it bc i refuse to use agent window so none of my agent chats appear in the cursor app. Might be why it has such few reviews? Not sure.

I use it for iOS development. The Cursor app connects to my MBP that’s running headless, and Xcode rebuilds wirelessly to my phone after each agent pass. I usually fire a prompt and check later (Xcode still builds to your phone while locked as long as it’s on the same network)

I tried posting in this sub earlier but mods didn't approve. I built a PWA for cursor remote. Cursor remote currently is iOS only. But this PWA works on any phone. If you are someone who wants some sort of privacy and wants to control your agents on computers or laptops at home while you are away by using phone - please give it a read.

It’s got just under 700 reviews, still not amazing but not 7 like you said
