This app is a fun, voice-based AI assistant designed to run directly on your device. During first use, you give the assistant a name, which it listens for during conversations. The name can be changed at any time in Settings. The assistant is intentionally lightweight, privacy-focused, and a little old-school in spirit. Instead of relying on constant internet access, the assistant runs locally and focuses on simple conversations and intentional interactions. Because it works on-device, responses may take a moment — especially for broader questions — but stored information and reminders are handled quickly and reliably. To save information, the user must explicitly ask the assistant to remember something by saying “Remember…”. Saved memories include the date they were recorded and can be referenced later. The assistant does not store information unless you clearly ask it to do so. The app can also create reminders using the built-in iOS Reminders app when you ask it to set one. Internet access is not required for normal use. A weather feature can optionally use location access to show local conditions and can be turned off at any time. No account or login is required.
