Can’t connect to my LM studio because iOS never prompt me for access to local network. Tried on both iPad and iPhone and never asked for local network so it can’t see LM studio. Is there a way to trigger iOS into asking. I check in local network settings inside iOS and the app doesn’t appear on the list.

I have been searching for a while for an ios app that would let me connect to my local instance or anything server running on the local network. Pairing this with a Wireguard VPN to your local network and it works anywhere with internet connectivity. The dev is super responsive,seems kind and wants to make a great app and it shows! Love the app, made with passion from a dev that listens to user feedback. If you want to connect to your server from ios and want additional features, please check out this app.P.S. To the dev/ team:Please keep up the great work and don't don't forget about the users once you guys get super popular! You have (literally) saved a life. <3

Worst local LM client

I'm not going to document every problem as there are many. This app requires a desktop companion app besides just LM Studio. Because I have other apps that connect to LM studio, this is a strange quirk considering this is the official app. It also doesn't automatically start with comp. The model also unloads after a moment of inactivity if you change windows. There's also a bunch of image generation features bolted on that don't work out of the box. This is simply unfinished software. Someone should use an AI to finish it. As an AI product these issues are unacceptable because fixing them is trivial. 07/15 - response to developers response: LM mini is a desktop app enabling the mobile app
Developer Response
This is Simply not true, You do not need anything else to use the app LM Studio. Model is loaded and unloaded on your PC, if it unloads automatically its something on your PC.
Gives new purpose to my IPad
Errrrorrrr
This app is amazing! I almost never write reviews, but it's completely transformed my old iPad. A truly fantastic addition! Just one suggestion, could connection be done through USB-C as an option? Would love to use this app during a flight, so I can use my iPad instead pulling out my heavy MBP. == Update: I open a ticket in Support / Feature request. Titled: USB-C connection as option. Thank you for taking the time to look into this.
Developer Response
Interesting suggestion, can you please open a ticket in Support / Feature request under Settings to discuss it in more details?
