Talk, type, draw, and search with the AI you self-host. Lemonade Chat is the polished mobile client for your Lemonade AI server — no cloud account, no subscription, no telemetry. Just a clean app that turns the LLM, image, and voice models you run at home into a phone-friendly experience. Whether you're chatting from the couch, on a flight, or running your AI on a beefy desktop next door, Lemonade Chat keeps the conversation in your pocket. WHAT'S NEW IN 3.0 PHONE-CALL VOICE MODE Tap the call button in the chat input and start talking — naturally, like a phone call. The AI listens, transcribes what you said, thinks, and replies aloud. Adaptive pause detection (Silero VAD) means you can pause mid-thought without getting cut off. Each turn is saved to chat as a normal message with both the audio clip and the transcript. Hang up by tapping end-call or just telling the AI ("end the call", "goodbye", "I'm done") — it understands. LEMONADE OMNI Stop hunting for the right tool. Just say (or type) what you want: • "Make me a picture of a sunset" → generates a new image. • "Add a hat to her" → edits the previous image. • "Read this aloud" → speaks the answer. • "What's in this photo?" → analyzes an image you sent. • "Find a coffee shop near me" → finds places by name + address. • "What's the latest on X?" → searches the live web. Voice or text — same experience either way. Tools run concurrently when the request needs more than one, so research-heavy turns stay fast. IMAGE ACTIONS Tap any image to open it fullscreen with pinch-to-zoom, then share, download to Photos, or delete with one tap. Image generation now supports 512 / 1K / 2K / 3K / 4K presets — pick the quality you want in Settings. THEMES Multiple built-in themes, light and dark. Pick one in Settings. CORE THINGS THAT KEEP GETTING BETTER Multi-server management — switch between local boxes, cloud GPUs, and a friend's instance with one tap. Per-chat model overrides for when you need a specific LLM. Selected model now persists across restarts (including Omni Collections). Folders for organizing chats. Beautiful code rendering with automatic language detection. Real-time streaming — answers appear as the AI generates them. Persistent local chat history with attachments stored on-device. Optional Admin Console for power users (server health, loaded models, hardware info, backends, live logs) — hidden until you turn it on in Settings. Standalone live transcription tool still available for one-shot audio → text workflows. GROUNDED IN OPEN SOURCE Built to work with the lemonade-sdk server, which runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Bring your own LLMs (Qwen, Gemma, Llama, Mistral, …), image models (SD, Flux, …), TTS voices (Kokoro and friends), and Whisper for ASR. Lemonade Chat is the front door. PRIVACY This app talks only to the server you configure. No analytics, no third-party SDKs, no Lemonade cloud. Conversations and server configs live locally on your device. Your API keys stay in your control. GETTING STARTED Add your server URL and (optional) API key in Settings → Manage servers, pick a model, and start chatting. Or tap the call button to skip typing entirely.
