I also had the same problem. i had an angular project. then created a cordova app inside called mobile

cordova create mobile

Then i tried to run

cordova platform add android

Which gave me the same error 'Current working directory is not a Cordova-based project'.

Solution : i have to go to the mobile folder ( from the command prompt cd mobile ) then i had to run the command there. Also there had to be a www folder in that mobile folder
