Publish in Cursor
Push your repository to GitHub and deploy it with Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Render or your own server. The deployment URL (or your domain) is what you insert into WebViewGold.
How it works
Wrap with WebViewGold
Insert the URL into WebViewGold for iOS and WebViewGold for Android, set name, icon and splash screen, switch on the native features you want. No coding.

The plan for Cursor apps
Do iOS and Android in parallel: both apps use the same URL and the same settings.
Publish your Cursor app on your own domain
Add your domain in the hosting provider's project settings and set the DNS records. localhost and tunnel URLs (ngrok, localtunnel) are for development only. Deploy to a permanent HTTPS URL.
Fix the store blockers once
Privacy policy page, account deletion, responsive layout down to 320 px, no builder badges, HTTPS everywhere. Run the free readiness check to see what is missing.
Configure WebViewGold for iOS and Android
Paste the URL, set app name, icon and splash screen in Config.swift and Config.java or in the Cloud Builder. Enable push notifications and the features you need.
Build both apps
Xcode and Android Studio, or the Cloud Builder in the browser for both. The Cloud Builder also uploads to App Store Connect and the Play Console.
Create both listings and submit
Same screenshots (per device size), same description, same privacy policy URL. Start the Google Play closed test the same day you submit to Apple so both reviews run in parallel.
Cursor specifics
Stack
Any web stack: Next.js, React + Vite, SvelteKit, Vue, Django, Rails and more
Authentication
Whatever you built: Auth.js, Clerk, Supabase, Firebase or sessions. Google and Facebook logins need the WebViewGold Social Login Helper inside the app; Sign in with Apple is handled automatically.
Payments
Stripe, Paddle, Lemon Squeezy. Digital goods sold inside the apps go through In-App Purchase / Google Play Billing (RevenueCat); physical goods keep your web checkout.
Domain
Default: yourproject.vercel.app, yourproject.netlify.app or your own domain. Add your domain in the hosting provider's project settings and set the DNS records.
Updates
Deploy and the app shows the new version instantly.
Badge
No builder badge to remove.
Store-readiness prompt
Paste into Cursor, review the changes, publish.
Prompt for the Cursor agent
Audit and prepare this web app for publishing as a native iOS and Android app (it will run inside a native WebView wrapper): 1. Ensure a meta viewport tag, no horizontal overflow from 320px to 1024px, tap targets of at least 44px and safe-area-inset padding on fixed headers/footers. 2. Add /privacy and /terms pages linked from the footer. 3. Add a "Delete account" action in settings that removes the user's data and auth record with confirmation. 4. Remove "Download our app" banners and external promotional links in the main navigation. 5. Add error boundaries and retry states for failed requests. 6. Set the <title> to the app name (max 30 characters) and a meta description. Report every change you made.
Native features on both platforms
Documented for iOS and Android; the JavaScript calls are identical on both platforms.
Push notifications
Remote push via OneSignal or Pushwoosh, local scheduled pushes via a JavaScript call, permission prompt at the moment you choose.
DocumentationSocial Login Helper
Google and Facebook logins work inside the app; Sign in with Apple is handled automatically.
DocumentationUniversal Links
Links from emails (magic links, password resets) open directly in the app.
DocumentationIn-app purchases
App Store subscriptions and one-time purchases via RevenueCat, triggered from your web app.
DocumentationOffline screen and fallback
A native "Try again" screen when the user is offline, or a local HTML fallback.
DocumentationFrequently asked questions
I built my app with Cursor. How do I get it into the App Store?
Deploy it to a public HTTPS URL, insert that URL into WebViewGold for iOS, build with Xcode or the Cloud Builder and submit through App Store Connect. The Android app uses the same URL with WebViewGold for Android.
Is a WebView wrapper acceptable for a Cursor-built app?
Yes, when the app offers real functionality and feels like an app. Apple's Guideline 4.2 targets repackaged websites with no added value; a responsive product with push notifications, offline handling and native sharing passes.
Can I add native features from my own code?
Yes. WebViewGold exposes a JavaScript bridge (URL schemes and JS variables) for push, haptics, QR scanning, biometric authentication, sharing, downloads and more, documented per platform.
Should I launch on iOS and Android at the same time?
Yes, if you can. Both apps use the same web app, so the extra work is one more license and one more listing. Start the Google Play closed test early: for new personal accounts it takes 14 days before production is available.
Do I need two WebViewGold licenses?
Yes, one for iOS and one for Android. Each is a one-time payment with free updates, and the Full Service package covers both if you prefer our team to do everything.
