Nodal: AI, Offline & Private
Chat. Create. Repeat.
Only for iPhone
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Chat with local models, generate images, clone voices, create speech from text, and more — all from one app, privately on your device.
Nodal runs real AI models on your iPhone. Chat, ask about photos, make images and music, and hear any text read aloud in a realistic voice, or in your own. Download a model once and it keeps working with the network off. No account.
CHAT AND WRITING
Ask questions, draft and rewrite, summarise long notes, explain code, practice a language. Replies stream in as they are written. Choose from open models in several sizes, from small ones that answer instantly to large ones for the best answers on the newest phones, or use Apple Intelligence on supported iPhones.
THINKING MODELS
Models that reason before they answer show their thinking as they go, and you can switch thinking on or off.
PHOTOS AND SCREENSHOTS
Attach a picture and ask about it. Read a menu, a receipt or a whiteboard, describe a photo, or pull the text out of a screenshot.
MAKE IMAGES
Describe a picture and it draws it on the phone with an open diffusion model. Sketch a rough drawing and turn it into an image, get a prompt idea when you are stuck, choose the detail and size, and keep everything in your own gallery or save it to Photos.
MAKE MUSIC
Describe a mood or a style and it makes a short track you can play, save or share. You can also bring your own compatible music model.
REALISTIC TEXT-TO-SPEECH
Hear any reply read aloud in a natural, human-sounding voice, or paste your own text into Speak and save it as an audio file. Pick from several voices and set the speed.
YOUR OWN VOICE
Read one short passage out loud and Nodal learns your voice. Then everything can be read the way you sound, in English and nine more languages. Choose High or Low quality depending on your phone.
TALK TO IT
Start a call and talk hands-free. It listens, answers, and speaks back.
MODEL HUB AND HUGGING FACE
Every model shows its size, what it is good at and how much memory it needs before you download it. Search Hugging Face from inside the app to install community models by name, or import a model file you already have. Pause and resume downloads, follow them on the Lock Screen, switch models in one tap, and remove any of them to free space.
BENCHMARK
Measure how fast each installed model runs on your own iPhone, so you can compare them instead of guessing.
YOUR CHATS
Every conversation is saved with a short title, searchable, and yours to delete. Export any chat as a PDF, Markdown or plain text file.
HEALTH ANSWERS WITH SOURCES
Questions about health show where to read more, from sources like the NHS and MedlinePlus.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
There is no Nodal server and no account. Chats, photos, images and music are processed and stored on your iPhone. The network is used to download models, to search Hugging Face, and to check your purchase with RevenueCat.
GOOD TO KNOW
This is real AI on a phone, so hardware matters. Small models run on any iPhone with iOS 18; the largest need 8 GB of memory. Models are open-weight files published by third parties under their own licences, all listed in the app. AI can be wrong, so check anything that matters and do not treat replies as medical, legal or financial advice.
