OwnOwl v0.2: On-Device LLM Chat App for iPhone Test Build

Local AI chat for iPhone(test build), built on a custom engine

AI summary

OwnOwl released a v0.2 test build of its iPhone app that runs a large language model entirely on-device, with no internet used for chatting. The update speeds up first replies by warming up on load and caching each conversation, adds longer default answers with a Continue button, and lets the app remember user-confirmed facts. It requires an iPhone with 6 GB of RAM or more and iOS 17 or newer, with model downloads of about 6 GB (GigaChat), 9 GB (Ling), or 14 GB (Gemma).
