Cursor releases a mobile app for iOS

Cursor, the AI code editor, has released a mobile app for iOS, bringing code editing, background agentic coding tasks, and review of agent results to iPhone and iPad. The mobile experience shares the same account, settings, and subscription as the existing desktop and web client, so work started on a computer can be picked up on the phone and vice versa.

What can you do with Cursor on iOS?

  • Write and edit code directly on the device using a touch-optimized interface.
  • Launch background agents that work on tasks while the user is away from the screen.
  • Review code and pull request results generated by those agents.
  • Pick up work started on a desktop or web session through Cursor’s synced account.

How do background agents work on mobile?

A core focus of the release is the ability to kick off long-running agentic tasks from the phone and return later to review the output. Cursor positions this as a way to make use of time away from a laptop, such as commuting or traveling, while keeping a full coding workflow attached to the same account.

Where can I get it and what does it cost?

The app is available on the iOS App Store. Users sign in with an existing Cursor account, and the mobile experience shares the same subscription and settings as the desktop client.

Cursor’s parent company Anysphere has not disclosed separate pricing for the mobile app, treating it as an extension of the existing product rather than a standalone tier.
