I can confidently say that this is the only mobile solution of its kind that I could recommend to friends and family. This app is exactly what I’ve been looking for. It works out of the box with a very capable model (Qwen3 1.7B) at speeds slightly faster than I read and doesn’t take long to fetch sources. No advanced configurations required or internet required if you need to chat in airplane mode as you’d expect. I love the peace of mind that using local models with web search on my Mac with apps like Msty and browser extensions like Page Assist. But the mobile counterparts of other chat UIs (e.g. OpenWebUI, SillyTavern) are far to complicated for the average non-dev user like me to configure. MyDeviceAI feels a missing niche that I’ve reached for daily in the past while away from my MacBook.Can’t wait to add more personalized info to the app’s memory for context (something Perplexity does not have as of writing) and for future updates. Hope this app sticks around for the long run and the dev gets the well-deserved the support necessary to do so!

Lovely app, by far the most useful for situations if online is needed as other apps don’t have this function, suggesting a voice chat mode in the future and file chat(dropping pdf etc) whether it be a pdf book of DnD rules or a .py of a snake game, being able to do all that here would be amazing

This is a great app. The combination of the astonishing Qwen3 1.7b model (built-in), the capacity to search the web, and to think, enables it to punch way above its weight. It’s just the right size to run quickly and comfortably on my m2 iPad. Very highly recommended if you have a modern ipad or iphone.

I’ve gotten all functions too work on this app EXCEPT importing llms from hugging face with my iPhone 16 plus running 8gb of ram I can’t load unsloths Gemma or qwen models only the built in one hope too see this fixed soon as the built in model tends to have looping issues when asked complex questions like “name every iPhone model ever made with a plus variant”
