This app is useful to me because it allows me to understand the capability of my device. Privacy AI is a little bit crowded, but that’s only because it lets you do everything under the sun. Because of this app, I know what models I will be using in apps I am building.

Using the app so far has been pretty mind blowing. Every other local inference wrapper application has a long way to go before they even touch the capabilities of this thing. It’s nothing shy of ambitious. I just wonder how they devs could put so much thought into the product itself but yet have such a…lackluster name. Anyways, top marks ti the mysterious makers of this masterpiece.

Has solely a subscription rather than one time payment in-app as an option and also collects tracking data, any data collection beyond typical LLM API usage makes the name pretty ironic. I get the purpose of the subscription model, and without a one time purchase it segments the potential customers into subscribers and those that will just pass on it entirely.

Analytics are enabled by default too, so it is requiring users to opt-out by default. These can change in the future but show the direction to begin with and are often followed by typical dev review replies with attempted justifications. Doesn’t escape the contradictory.

Solid UI.
Not a lot of justification in contrast, no thanks.

This App is powerful and professional, just as cherry studio & openclaw. The only shame is that it’s too complicated for beginners. And the local model can’t be deleted.

This app is blowing my mind… This is everything that I’ve ever wanted in a local LLM app…and more. The advanced tools available in this app are kind of insane. I’m sorry but this app puts PocketPal and Locally AI to shame.

1 small BUG: I can’t seem to set the theme to “auto” mode. I’m stuck at either light or dark mode.

Good app for asking weird questions no other AI would ever answer. Completely private and after you download the models you need it work even offline.
Only thing you have to know is that it uses up a lot of your devices resources.

I've tried just about every AI client on the App Store, and this is the one. I stumbled on this app when it had zero downloads and found an absolute gem. This isn't just another chat wrapper; it's a full-on AI agent for your phone. You can plug in APIs for basically any model (Gemini, DeepSeek, etc.) and it has tools that let the AI actually do things—manage your calendar, get directions, search your contacts, the list goes on. The "Super Siri" feature that lets you use your own AI model with a voice command is a complete game-changer.
Now, full disclosure, the app is BRAND new, so it's a little rough around the edges. You might hit a few quirks or a random crash here and there as the developer irons things out. But honestly, that's totally expected for something this ambitious. The potential here is just off the charts.
Giving this 5 stars for the vision alone and for what it can already do.
