Building a Smart Productivity Booster Mobile App using Cursor AI, Deepseek R1, and Expo Go

Today, we're going to show you how you can create your own fully functional mobile app using AI, specifically with Cursor AI, Deepseek R1, and Expo Go. This app is a productivity booster with features like deep focus timers, do not disturb mode, and a motivation code generator.

Introduction to Cursor AI and Deepseek R1

This is the image of the Cursor AI interface, where you can see the chat window and the options to select the model Cursor AI is an AI code editor that is really amazing, and it has been used for quite a while now. It has a free tier where you get a Pro two trial as well as 2,000 completions for free and 50 slow premium requests.

Setting Up Cursor AI and Deepseek R1

This is the image of the Deepseek R1 interface, where you can see the options to generate code Deepseek R1 is used to generate the code for the app. The app is a productivity booster with features like deep focus timers, do not disturb mode, and a motivation code generator.

Generating Code with Deepseek R1

To generate the code, we use the prompt "create a react native app using Expo" because that's what we use. The idea about the app is a productivity booster with features like deep focus timers, do not disturb mode, and a motivation code generator.

Installing Dependencies and Setting Up the App

Once the code is generated, we need to install all the dependencies. We use the command "npm install" to install all the dependencies. After installing the dependencies, we need to add the code to the app.

Testing and Iteration

This is the image of the Productivity Booster App, where you can see the features like deep focus timers and do not disturb mode We test the app and iterate on it to fix any errors. We use the command "npx Expo start" to start the app locally. We can then scan the QR code and open the app in the Expo app on our mobile phone.

Final Thoughts

This is the image of the final app, where you can see all the features working We have our app complete, and it's working fine. We can go ahead and create accounts on Upwork and other platforms, code using AI tools like Deepseek R1, and get clients to pay us real money.

Conclusion

In this video, we learned how to build a smart productivity booster mobile app using Cursor AI, Deepseek R1, and Expo Go. We saw how to set up Cursor AI and Deepseek R1, generate code, install dependencies, and test and iterate on the app. We also saw how to use the app and its features. With this knowledge, we can create our own mobile apps using AI and turn them into business models.
