# Cursor releases iOS mobile app in public beta for remote AI coding

> Cursor has released a native iOS app in public beta, letting developers kick off and manage its always-on cloud coding agents from their phones. You can pick a repo, dispatch an agent, and check on its work from anywhere, extending the AI editor beyond the desktop for the first time. The mobile launch arrives alongside Cursor 3.11, which adds side chats that run next to the main agent conversation, agent-transcript search backed by local indexing across thousands of past conversations, and a team MCP server marketplace that lets admins push approved integrations to their whole team. The interesting shift here is what coding is becoming. If an agent does the heavy lifting in the cloud, the developer's job starts to look more like assigning and reviewing tasks, work that fits on a phone screen. Cursor, reportedly a $2 billion ARR business, is betting that the editor is no longer the center of gravity, and that supervising agents from anywhere is where the daily work now lives.
