## What is Orvena?

Orvena is a complete assistant that runs on your iPhone. The language model runs on the device itself, so conversations never leave your phone. There is no account, no Orvena server, and no analytics.

ASK, AND IT GETS DONE
Orvena works with the phone you already have: calendar, reminders, alarms and timers, maps and travel times, photos, Apple Health summaries, music, and files. Every action leaves a receipt you can read, and anything consequential asks for your approval before it runs.

PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE
Privacy pages usually ask for trust. Orvena's is a list: everything the app can ever send is enumerated in a short ledger in the privacy policy. On-device features work without any data leaving the phone, and anything that could ever leave asks first through a named consent step.

ONE PURCHASE UNLOCKS THE REST
The on-device assistant, every phone tool, web search and reading, and image understanding are free, without limits or a trial clock. A single one-time purchase adds:
 • Voice conversations, with a natural voice generated on the device
 • Connections to services you use, like Notion, Linear, GitHub, Home Assistant, and any MCP server, with sign-in built in
 • Cloud models with your own API key, when you want a bigger model
 • Scheduled tasks, so Orvena can check on things at the right time and report back
There is no subscription.

REQUIREMENTS
Orvena runs a large language model on the phone itself, which needs recent hardware: iPhone 15 Pro or newer with 8 GB of memory, on iOS 26. The model, about 3.5 GB, downloads once on first launch.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.1 — 2026-09-16

Model descriptions are now translated into all 30 languages, so the Models screen reads naturally wherever you are.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-09-16

A new look, drawn in glass and light. Every screen now sits on a warm field: frosted panels with a lit edge, a single copper accent, and motion that settles the way real things do. Voice has a new presence, a drop of clear glass that bends the light behind it and moves with your voice and with Orvena's.

Typing turns the talk button into a send button, and icons across the app morph between their states instead of swapping. Scrolling is smoother everywhere, and Settings opens without the first-scroll stutter.

Travel time and directions now work between any two addresses, not only from where you are. Scheduled tasks, Connections and the custom server form share the same design, and dark mode sits quieter.

Plus fixes and refinements across all 30 languages.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-09-05

The Today page now leads with the weather in its own card, drawn as a small animated glyph. Calendar items for another day carry a day heading, so tomorrow's events are never mistaken for today's. Plus fixes and refinements across all 30 languages.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-01

Orvena now speaks 31 languages.

- Voice conversations in Danish, German, Dutch, Polish, and 24 more, plus richer Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese voices.
- Orvena listens in your language too: pick it in Settings, or let it follow the conversation.
- The whole app now appears in 30 languages.
- Replies always match the language you asked in.
- New voice options and per-voice previews under Settings.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-27

This update is all about speed and precision.

- Replies start faster, and the first message after opening the app no longer lags.
- Long conversations stay sharp all the way through.
- Prefer speed over caution? You can now turn thinking off on the Models page.
- Orvena picks the right tool the first time more often, and connected apps like Notion and GitHub work more smoothly.
- Replies now stay in the language you asked in.
- Location checks show a simpler, quieter card.
- Spoken replies handle percentages, prices, and symbols naturally.
