Sesori vs Cursor for iOS
Cursor for iOS lets you run Cloud Agents on Cursor's infrastructure or remote-control agents already running on your machine, all from an iPhone. It's a polished first-party experience, but it's iOS only, it requires a paid Cursor plan, and it only works with Cursor's own agents. Sesori is a separate mobile app that remote-controls AI coding agents on your own machine, today supporting OpenCode, Codex, and Cursor, on both iOS and Android.
If you're on a paid Cursor plan and use an iPhone, Cursor's own app is a natural fit with deep integration and Cloud Agent support. If you're on Android, use multiple AI coding tools, or want one mobile app that covers more than one assistant, Sesori is the better choice.
