Offline on-device LLM chat app for iOS (local inference, no cloud)

Offline on-device LLM chat app for iOS (local inference, no cloud)

I wanted to share an iOS app called Private Mind: Offline AI Chat that runs entirely on-device – no server calls, no accounts, no tracking.

The app focuses on local inference on iPhone using optimized models for mobile constraints. Once downloaded, it works fully offline (including airplane mode).

Key points:

100% local inference (no cloud fallback)

Runs offline after install

Privacy-first: no analytics, no data leaves the device

Simple chat-style UI for everyday use

App Store:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/private-mind-offline-ai-chat/id6754819594

I’d love feedback from this community on:

Expectations vs reality for mobile local LLMs

Model size / quality trade-offs on iOS

Features that make sense for strictly local setups

Happy to answer technical questions.
