What's New in Noema

3.6.1

July 29, 2026

• Constellation: use your Mac's models from your iPhone, iPad, or Vision Pro. Any Mac on your iCloud account with Remote Access turned on is found on its own — no address or token to enter — and tapping Use opens the chat right away while the Mac loads in the background. • Noema picks the most private way to reach your Mac for each message, from your local network through to an encrypted relay, and shows which one it is using in the chat header. Off-grid Mode now holds across every kind of connection, not just ordinary web traffic. • Your Mac can stand in for the cloud: its models appear in Autopilot's Stronger Model picker, and a new Fallback Model means a hard question tries another model before your on-device one answers. • Chats sync across your Apple devices if you want them to — one switch, off by default, in a new Sync & Devices setting. Conversations, bookmarks, and per-chat settings travel through your private iCloud account, and a reply that finishes on your Mac appears on your phone without opening the app. • Projects group related chats under shared instructions and sources, so every conversation in a project starts from the same context. Import PDFs, EPUBs, and text files straight into a project, or attach datasets you already have. • A rebuilt chat drawer brings search, projects, bookmarks, favorites, and date groups into one list with a preview of the last reply on every row, and chats stay noticeably faster during long generations. • Images you attach now reach the model at full resolution instead of being shrunk on the way in, so screenshots, receipts, and dense charts are legible to it for the first time. • Paged Overfit models run with the context you choose instead of a hidden cap, and Laguna S 2.1 now works as a Paged model. • Models are more honest about what they can do: a vision model that cannot actually read images no longer claims it can, and downloaded models use the Chat Template they shipped with. • On Mac, the Relay page is replaced by a simpler Developer page, and Remote Access has moved into Settings, under Sync & Devices. • Interface fixes, bug fixes, and polish throughout.

Great App

This is a great tool to learn and play with. I appreciate that the developer frequently releases updates to add features or to address specific user requests.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review. I’m glad you’re enjoying exploring and learning with Noema. User feedback plays a large role in shaping each update, so it means a great deal to hear that the improvements have been useful.

Off-grid mode works

The latest update fixed the off-grid.

Response from developer

Update: Hi xxxsman, the issue you were encountering has been fixed, please let us know if you continue encountering issues. Hi there xxxsman! We're sorry the off-grid functionality is not working correctly. We have a team of early testers and thoroughly test features before we release, this is actually a feature that has been in Noema for a long time. We'd love if you could send us an email at clientcare@noemaai.com as this might be a device-specific bug. Please contact us and we'll fix this as soon as possible. Thank you.

Not working after 2.0 update

After updating to 2.0, I cannot load any model regardless of the size or quantization.
Please update the application to resolve the issue.

Load Failed
Failed to start loopback Ilama.cpp server for this GGUF model.

Response from developer

Hi Paul, Please update the app to version 2.1 as we have tried to fix the bug you mentioned. Please email us or update your review to let us know if the problem has been fixed. Thank you.

Best offline LLM solution on iOS

Really, this is exactly the kind of offline LLM experience that I am looking for on iOS. Bravo! There were some minor bugs here and there, but the core experience works greatly. If iOS can relax the memory limit a bit more I am sure the app could get much more useful with larger models but one could dream at this moment. Still, the app itself really stands out. I am wondering if there’s a way to support the developer…

Hi, thanks for your review! We’re working towards resolving all the bugs and improving the overall user experience so that it is closer to what you could find on desktop. Thanks for again for your support! At the current time, there’s no way to support, but in future releases I will look into it. Your feedback currently is more than enough!

Neat app

Interesting local LLM app. I like what you have done and hope you keep expanding on it. Lots of great ideas here
