LLLM vs GlassCode
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
LLLM
Read full descriptionHide full description
Chat app compatible with Ollama and self-hosted models. It needs an Ollama server running and adding the endpoint in the model settings. All the information saved is local, everything is private, and no account is needed. It supports message streaming and markdown. It could also work with models served without Ollama, but that has not been tested.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LLLM at none against GlassCode's 3. LLLM also leads on iOS requirement (17.6 vs 26.0). GlassCode's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
