Call Openrouter models from iOS! Voice chat! Watch app!

This hits the sweet spot on my iPhone and watch - I like to research via llm while out walking the dog and RouterChat has all the right knobs and features. It could easily replace claude app for me on walks and let me compare LM and TTS models.

Thoughtful features and very apple-flavored implementation with iCloud sync of convos.

I hope the developer one day expands by allowing connections to remote MCP tools…

Response from developer

thank you ❤️ I'll look into MCP support

Works nicely

It is the chat app I’m using now after ChatBox AI. I use it because of the sync to iCloud and the integration with open router.
My top request features are:
- edit prompt and try again
- view total cost of the conversation
- rename conversation title

Thank you

Response from developer

Thank you for the review and suggestions.

User-Friendly, does more than I could ask

This is so good for mobile users, I would recommend this to everyone who uses open router and wants the same experience on their phone.

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind review

Beautiful

I love that it’s simple and does its job quite well, ZDR option is awesome. For us nerds who care enough about privacy to use this app though, it would be nice if it was open source so that we could double check the code, thank you!

Response from developer

Thank you for your review and proposal to open source.

Democratizes AI

I love this app. It brings most AI models to your pocket. Great for exploring new models, moving your chats to zero data retention, and getting fine grained control over each request.
