Integration · Cursor
Let Cursor use your iPhone.
Connect Cursor's agent to ScreenTap and it can test your iOS app on a real iPhone while it writes the code: build, tap through, see what broke, fix it.

Add ScreenTap to mcp.json
For all projects, edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json. For one project, use .cursor/mcp.json in that project. If the file already has servers, add only the "screentap" entry.
mcp.json{ "mcpServers": { "screentap": { "url": "http://127.0.0.1:47811/mcp" } } } - 3
Check it's connected

Things to try
Ask Cursor to…
- ›

Turn on the largest text size, then check my app for cut-off text.

Good to know
- Cursor asks before running each tool. You can allow ScreenTap's tools to run automatically in Cursor's settings.
Questions
