Local LLM: On-Device

On-device AI chat that feels closer to Gemini

Local LLM: On-Device

None of the on-device LLMs I tried on iPhone felt close to Gemini, ChatGPT, or Claude, so I built one that runs locally and aims for that kind of UX. The local LLM runs Qwen, Gemma, and other small models on your iPhone without an account. Chats stay on device. Download a model first (a few GB), then you can chat offline. Optional web search uses DuckDuckGo only when you turn it on. iPhone 14 or newer is strongly recommended.
