Requires iPhone 12 or newer. Models run on the device's graphics processor, and earlier iPhones cannot run them. ChindaGo is your daily life & emergency AI companion β an on-device AI assistant from iApp Technology. Answers are generated on your iPhone, so your conversations, your files and your questions do not leave the device. β’ Offline-first: works without internet, keeping your data private β’ No round trip: your question is answered on the phone, not sent to a server β’ Multilingual: fluent in Thai and English, interface included β’ Practical AI: helps with daily tasks, planning, and emergency guidance β’ Point your camera at it β photograph a receipt, a form, a label or a page of a contract and ask about it without leaving the app β’ Ask about your documents β attach a PDF, a text file or a photo, and text is read out of images as well β’ Choose your model β pick an open model in a size that fits your phone, or add any MLX model from Hugging Face or a folder on your device. Each one shows what it costs in space and memory before you download it β’ Decide what it is allowed to do β web search, Wikipedia lookups and reading your folders are each a switch, each asks before it runs, and one "Fully offline" switch closes all of them at once Nothing is uploaded unless you switch on a tool that needs the network β and when you do, only what that tool needs is sent. Stay connected, even when you're not. Wherever you go, ChindaGo is always ready to assist.
Decaf

Decaf is a completely free iPhone app I made to help myself stop doomscrolling. It opens Instagram, Facebook and YouTube with the bits designed to keep you hooked taken out: Reels, Shorts, suggested posts and recommended feeds. Messages, search, posting all still work. WHAT IT DOES β’ Hides Reels, Shorts, the Explore grid, suggested posts and other endless feeds. Each one can be switched back on. β’ Shows how long you've spent on each site today, this week and this year. β’ Lets you set a daily limit, overall or for each site. β’ Quiet hours, when sites won't open at all. β’ Slow scrolling: after a few short videos, each swipe takes a little longer. β’ Easy to tighten, harder to loosen, so a weak moment doesn't undo a good decision. PRIVATE No account, no adverts, no analytics, no tracking. Your settings and history stay on your phone. Decaf connects to nothing but the sites you open. FREE No subscription, no premium features, nothing behind a paywall. It's just me making it, in my spare time. Decaf isn't affiliated with Meta, Instagram, Facebook, Google or YouTube.
