Great App, and a Definite Recommendation for Local AI Users.

A suggestion from me would be that you add a TTS feature like Kokoro TTS from Hexgrad. Thank in advance.

Response from developer

Hi! Really glad you're enjoying the app and thanks for the feedback! We've added the TTS feature to our backlog - will discuss it with the team

Response from developer

Hello! Thanks for the feedback Grabbed it, we're on it

Gemma 4 E4B removed

why was gemma 4 E4B removed in the recent update to this app

edit: I’m using an iPhone 17 Pro
edit2: also would be nice to see quantization options for models

Response from developer

Hey Buzzard, thanks so much for the review - feedback like this really helps us out! You're totally right and this one's on us. In the last update we added a filter that matches each model's requirements against your device's specs and hides the ones that might crash - and Gemma E4B got caught up in it even though it was running just fine for you. We're already fixing it - moving to a "Recommended" list plus full access to every model, so nothing gets pulled out from under you. Quick question: which device are you on? That'll help us get the cutoffs right. Thanks again for flagging it!
