### 1/5 — Having trouble downloading

*2026-05-19*

On 6th try. It can’t seem to download simply. What is blocking it?

**Developer response:** Sorry for the trouble. A stable 5G or Wi-Fi connection is required for downloading. We distribute our models through a CDN to provide the maximum possible download speed, so the issue is most likely related to the internet connection. Please check your connection and try again.

### 4/5 — Which model do you use?

*2026-04-27*

One single model isn’t good enough. Multiple sizes for different devices would be a great addition. My suggestions:
Smartest: QWEN3.5 4B
Balanced: Gemma 4 E2B
Fast: Bonsai 8B 1 bit (only 1.1GB, very good I’ve tried it.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the suggestion! We actually do run multiple models and pick one automatically based on your device. We keep the choice hidden on purpose – most users aren't familiar with model names, and we want local AI to feel simple enough for everyone, not just enthusiasts.
