Stealth vs 123Filtering

Stealth is an AI assistant and backcountry toolkit that runs entirely on your iPhone. Your words, photos, recordings and files are processed on the device and stored encrypted. There's no account, no cloud, no analytics, and no ads. TALK, SHOW, ASK • Chat with Apple Intelligence or a downloaded open model (MiniCPM, Granite, Gemma or Qwen), on the iPhone's own chip. • Voice mode, and "Show Stealth": point the camera and ask. • Stealth remembers what matters, with your consent. Review, pin or delete any memory. YOUR FILES, SCANS AND RECORDINGS • Import PDFs and notes, or scan receipts, letters and contracts with the camera; Stealth reads them on device, answers from them and cites the passage. • Private recorder with live transcript and summary. TRANSLATE, OFFLINE • Text, signs and menus through the camera, photos, and face-to-face conversations. • Apple's on-device translation or a downloadable model (Hy-MT2 or TranslateGemma, 55 languages including Romanian). OFFLINE MAPS AND ROUTES FOR HIKING AND OFF-ROAD • Download a region once (Romania now): streets, every trail and track, marked routes, terrain, contours and places. • Route planning with no signal: hike, bike or off-road, with time, climb and turn-by-turn cues, and an alert if you leave the route. • Mark your car and get led back to it. • Record and import tracks (GPX); fly over them in 3D. • Wikivoyage (optional): 33,000 travel guides, with their places on the map. WITH OTHERS, WITH NO NETWORK (OPTIONAL) • Nearby mesh: message people over Bluetooth, relayed phone to phone. Works with the bitchat app. • Trips: see your group on the offline map, hold-to-talk voice clips, and an SOS that repeats until someone answers. • Radio (beta): pair a MeshCore LoRa radio to reach people kilometres away. • Online via Tor: end-to-end encrypted messages to contacts anywhere. SAFETY • Field Kit: first-aid cards, GPS coordinates, compass, sun times, SOS flashlight. • Storm watch: the barometer warns when pressure falls fast. • Medical ID: allergies, blood type and contacts, one tap from a Lock Screen widget even with Stealth locked (if you allow it), and shown in another language when needed. • Survival Core and Wikipedia Medicine (optional): field guides and medical articles, offline. APPLE WATCH • SOS, the way back to your car, the barometer, Translate and your Medical ID on your wrist. PRIVACY TOOLS • Clean a photo before sharing: remove its location and camera details, and hide faces, text and number plates for good. PRIVATE BY DESIGN — WE NEVER COLLECT YOUR DATA • No account, no servers, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. • AES-256 encryption for every chat, memory, file and recording, and a Face ID lock. • Network ledger: see every download Stealth has made. It goes online only to download what you chose, or for Comms if you turn it on, always through Tor. Routes and trail data come from OpenStreetMap volunteers: check conditions locally. Answers can be wrong and aren't professional advice. In an emergency, contact emergency services when you can.

123Filtering is a DNS-based internet security service that helps protect your devices from unwanted content and online threats. It filters what reaches your device so you can enjoy a cleaner, safer and more focused internet experience. Whether you are protecting your family, your business or yourself, 123Filtering works quietly in the background to block harmful content and let through what matters most. Key features • Content filtering: block unwanted and harmful domains (e.g. explicit content, malware, phishing). • Device-wide protection: filtering applies across all apps and browsers, not just inside a single browser. • DNS-level security: block unwanted domains before they load, for a faster and more consistent experience. • Simple setup: quick configuration, then 123Filtering runs automatically in the background. • Light and efficient: DNS-based protection designed to have minimal impact on performance and battery. How 123Filtering works When your device looks up a website (a DNS query), 123Filtering checks whether that domain is allowed. Blocked domains are stopped before a connection is made, which helps keep apps and browsers aligned with your preferences. 123Filtering focuses on DNS-level decisions and does not inspect the full content of your web pages, messages or files. It controls which domains can be reached, helping create a more focused, distraction-free and safer environment. Use of VPN / Network Extension (required disclosure) 123Filtering uses Apple’s Network Extension capabilities to provide system-wide DNS filtering and protection on iOS: • 123Filtering can create an on-device “VPN-like” configuration (such as a DNS Proxy or DNS Settings configuration) so it can securely handle DNS queries from all apps and browsers. • Only DNS queries are processed for filtering and policy enforcement. The rest of your internet traffic (the actual content of websites, videos, messages, etc.) continues to use your normal network connection unless your configuration explicitly routes traffic through a tunnel. • 123Filtering is not a general-purpose VPN. It does not aim to change your IP address, hide your location, bypass geo-restrictions or provide anonymous browsing. • These permissions are required so 123Filtering can apply DNS-based filtering consistently across the entire device, rather than only inside a single app. • DNS requests handled by 123Filtering can be encrypted between your device and our filtering service (where supported by your selected configuration), in line with Apple platform requirements. In short, 123Filtering uses Network Extension only as a technical mechanism to enable DNS filtering and device-wide internet protection. Learn more at 123filtering.com
