## What is Solair AI?

Private by default. Frontier when you want it.

Solair puts every kind of AI in your pocket, and keeps it private. Run powerful models fully on-device with no account and no internet, or connect Claude, ChatGPT, Grok and more when you want the frontier. Create images along the way, and keep every one in a gallery of your own.

RUN AI ON YOUR DEVICE
• 100% on-device models, no account, no sign-up, no tracking. Once a model downloads, everything works offline.
• Your conversations, photos, health data, and documents are processed locally and never leave your device.
• Auto Mode picks the right model for each message: Fast for quick questions, Smart for deep reasoning, Vision for photos and documents.
• A duress code and fully local processing mean no one can read your data, not even us.

BRING YOUR FAVORITE AI
• Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Kimi, DeepSeek, Mistral, and more in one tap, just paste your API key.
• Send photos, PDFs, and videos, watch reasoning models think, and generate images where supported.
• Real web research: cloud models search the web themselves and show every source they read.
• With your permission, they can read your health, calendar, and weather, and chart it for you.
• Tokens, estimated spend, and voice minutes tracked per provider.
• Your memory and past chats stay on your device unless you choose to share them.

CREATE IMAGES, AND KEEP THEM ALL
• Generate images right in your conversation. Choose the quality, the shape, and how many, and see what each option costs before you create.
• Every image you make lands in a gallery of your own: folders you name, favorites, and full-screen browsing.
• Pinch to zoom, swipe to move through them, and see them in real HDR that glows on your display.
• Jump from any image straight back to the conversation that created it.

TALK TO IT
• Live voice conversations with ChatGPT and Grok, interrupt anytime, and the whole talk lands in your chat as a transcript.
• Every other provider gets a voice on-device, only text ever leaves your phone, never audio, and live transcription types your words as you speak.

MORE TO LOVE
• Build your own apps (beta): describe one in a sentence and Solair makes a real, working app that runs offline. Four finished apps are included.
• Scheduled tasks: give Solair a job and a time, and the answer arrives as a notification, all on your device.
• Personas: chat with friends, historical figures, or build your own.
• Personal memory that learns your preferences, and document analysis with instant summaries.
• Health intelligence, ask about steps, sleep, and workouts from Apple Health, all on-device. Informational only, not medical advice.
• Connect to your own server (Ollama and more) securely over Tailscale.
• A beautiful Liquid Glass interface for iOS 26, with an engine switcher, sidebar search, and customizable themes.
• Models included: Qwen3 & 3.5, Llama 3.2, Mistral, Gemma 3, plus coding, lightweight, and vision models like Qwen VL and LFM2.5.

WHY SOLAIR
Most AI apps send everything to the cloud. Solair runs on your device first, so your private data stays private, and reaches for the cloud only when you choose.

REQUIREMENTS
• iPhone A14 or newer, iPad A12 or newer, Mac with Apple Silicon. iOS 26 or later. 500MB to 5GB per on-device model.

Solair is free with no ads. Optional tips support development but never lock features.

### 5/5 — VERY GOOD!!

*2026-08-15*

One of the best local Ai apps for sure! Thank you!

### 5/5 — This is a very good local AI

*2026-07-27*

In the voice settings, could you provide a tutorial? I really don’t know how to use them, and I think it would be helpful to have some permissions to integrate my own data models.

### 1/5 — Worst AI i have ever used

*2026-07-20*

It may be private, but that doesn’t matter when answer quality is so bad. I have iphone 17 pro max using the best model and the amount of made up information this AI gives makes it useless. Cannot do anything helpful, crashes a bunch.  Tried smaller model and was even worse. Appreciate the effort but people should be warned these models are full of mistakes. Worse than chatgpt in 2023.

### 5/5 — Top tier.

*2026-06-10*

Off the chain. How all chat bots should be.

### 5/5 — The only good local AI app

*2026-05-30*

Every local AI app I’ve tried on my iPhone thus far is either a dinky Ollama wrapper, doesn’t give me any options other than like two local models to use, has no tool calling, and basically no abilities other than just local chat… Solair has EVERYTHING. I can do Web search with a local model, which is insane. I have a built-in router to automatically switch to other models live, which is also insane. I can even hook up my Health metrics to the app and run a local model on them. This is unbelievably good, excellent work from the dev.

**Developer response:** Thank you. Doing my best to make the ultimate local AI app. Best, Simon.

### 5/5 — Best app, period.

*2026-05-05*

Best app that has online functionality and fast responses, have bought countless of ai apps and this ones by far much better for visuals. It’s just perfect. Plus it’s free.

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 5/5 — 非常棒的Local Ai

*2026-04-23*

非常棒的Local Ai

### 5/5 — I reccomend too anyone for ai processing

*2026-04-05*

From web search with local ai llm processing too being able too connect with Apple health too check my health stats from my Apple Watch AND AirPods Pro 3 this is a Top 10 recommended choice for anyone looking for fast simple too setup ai processing without spending money on a subscription or useing cloud AI company’s solutions that just wanna harvest your data too feed you more “targeted ads” oh and did I mention this app is free? No subscription needed for unlimited conversations!!! No annoying ads or pop ups all the dev asks for is donations and feedback when and if possible this developer dose actually reply too feedback and has applied changes too the application even I asked for meaning he really dose take into account user feedback when developing this application!! ( only tested on iPhone 16 plus running latest versions of iOS 26 as of the time of writing useing Apple Intelligence for my fast model and Gemma 3 text 4B for my smart model results may vary per device and configuration )

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. I reworked a lot the voice mode, you should see some improvements. Next update should drop this week, it’s a big one :)

### 4/5 — Gatekeeps

*2026-03-18*

A local llm is almost pointless because it still censors itself and won’t treat you like an adult.

(Developer has a well-reasoned response and has done the best they can to mitigate this issue.)

**Developer response:** I included few uncensored models, and you can download more uncensored models from huggingface directly. But I agree with you, LLMs currently are extremely politically correct by default.

### 2/5 — Gatekeeps

*2026-03-15*

A local llm is almost pointless because it still censors itself and won’t treat you like an adult.

### 3.1.1 — 2026-08-26

This update fixes a few small bugs:
• Fixed a crash that could occur when viewing answers with sources
• Fixed persona creation failing with certain model setups
• Improved memory management for better stability

### 3.1 — 2026-08-20

Intelligence that works for you.

• BUILD THE APP YOU WISH YOU HAD (BETA): describe it in a sentence, and Solair turns it into a real, working app on your phone, no internet needed. Four finished apps are included, and yours can use 3D and, with your permission, your own health data.

• HAND OFF YOUR DAILY CHECKS: give Solair a job and a time, "every morning, check my sleep and tell me how recovered I am", and the answer arrives as a notification. All on your device.

• KEEP EVERYTHING YOU CREATE: every image you make, in your own gallery. Folders you name, pinch to zoom, swipe to browse, real HDR.

• CREATE IMAGES YOUR WAY: choose quality, shape and how many, and see the cost before you decide. Put your phone down while they render.

• CLOUD INTELLIGENCE THAT KNOWS YOUR WORLD: let it see your health, calendar and weather, and get real charts back. Deeper research with sources, the cost of every answer, one tap to try another AI, and answers that wait for you even if you close the app.

• PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF: reopen a conversation and it returns to the same AI. Chats you start privately on your device stay yours, permanently.

• A LOOK THAT'S MORE YOU: a new icon, welcome cards, a greeting that knows your name, and new animations.

• FASTER IN YOUR HAND: Solair opens about twice as fast, the sidebar is instant with years of chats, and two conversations can think at once.

### 3.0 — 2026-08-08

Bring your favorite AI, and keep your privacy.

• AI Providers: connect Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Kimi, DeepSeek, Mistral, and more in one tap. Send photos and PDFs, watch reasoning models think, generate images, and get real web search with sources.
• Voice everywhere: live voice conversations with ChatGPT and Grok, plus a voice for every other provider, only text ever leaves your phone, never audio.
• Live transcription: voice mode types your words as you speak.
• New engine switcher: tap the top pill to move between On-Device, Auto, and Cloud. Long-press for the full model library.
• Animated activity indicators for thinking, searching, research, tools, and image generation.
• Simplified Settings and a redesigned onboarding with an instant start while models download.
• Major stability pass: dozens of crash fixes, safe startup recovery, and a new on-device Stability report.

Private by default: your memory and past chats stay on your device unless you choose to share them with a cloud provider.
