Private by default. Frontier when you want it. Solair puts every kind of AI in your pocket, and keeps it private. Run powerful models fully on-device with no account and no internet, or connect Claude, ChatGPT, Grok and more when you want the frontier. Create images along the way, and keep every one in a gallery of your own. RUN AI ON YOUR DEVICE • 100% on-device models, no account, no sign-up, no tracking. Once a model downloads, everything works offline. • Your conversations, photos, health data, and documents are processed locally and never leave your device. • Auto Mode picks the right model for each message: Fast for quick questions, Smart for deep reasoning, Vision for photos and documents. • A duress code and fully local processing mean no one can read your data, not even us. BRING YOUR FAVORITE AI • Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Kimi, DeepSeek, Mistral, and more in one tap, just paste your API key. • Send photos, PDFs, and videos, watch reasoning models think, and generate images where supported. • Real web research: cloud models search the web themselves and show every source they read. • With your permission, they can read your health, calendar, and weather, and chart it for you. • Tokens, estimated spend, and voice minutes tracked per provider. • Your memory and past chats stay on your device unless you choose to share them. CREATE IMAGES, AND KEEP THEM ALL • Generate images right in your conversation. Choose the quality, the shape, and how many, and see what each option costs before you create. • Every image you make lands in a gallery of your own: folders you name, favorites, and full-screen browsing. • Pinch to zoom, swipe to move through them, and see them in real HDR that glows on your display. • Jump from any image straight back to the conversation that created it. TALK TO IT • Live voice conversations with ChatGPT and Grok, interrupt anytime, and the whole talk lands in your chat as a transcript. • Every other provider gets a voice on-device, only text ever leaves your phone, never audio, and live transcription types your words as you speak. MORE TO LOVE • Build your own apps (beta): describe one in a sentence and Solair makes a real, working app that runs offline. Four finished apps are included. • Scheduled tasks: give Solair a job and a time, and the answer arrives as a notification, all on your device. • Personas: chat with friends, historical figures, or build your own. • Personal memory that learns your preferences, and document analysis with instant summaries. • Health intelligence, ask about steps, sleep, and workouts from Apple Health, all on-device. Informational only, not medical advice. • Connect to your own server (Ollama and more) securely over Tailscale. • A beautiful Liquid Glass interface for iOS 26, with an engine switcher, sidebar search, and customizable themes. • Models included: Qwen3 & 3.5, Llama 3.2, Mistral, Gemma 3, plus coding, lightweight, and vision models like Qwen VL and LFM2.5.

Lexable

Most reading apps were designed for readers who already read comfortably. Lexable is built differently — it reformats any text or PDF into a layout your eyes can actually follow, right on your device, with nothing sent anywhere. Paste a work email, import a PDF, or share any document from another app. Lexable strips the formatting clutter and renders it in a reader you control: OpenDyslexic font, adjustable spacing, tinted overlays, and a Focus Reading Mode that bolds the leading part of each word to anchor your eye and cut visual noise. Everything stays on your iPhone. No account. No internet. No data collected. Ever. What Lexable does: - Focus Reading Mode bolds the start of each word so your eye lands in the right place every time — adjust fixation strength to match how you read. - Text-to-speech with synchronized word highlighting reads aloud while the current word is highlighted, so eyes and ears work together. - OpenDyslexic font bundled and ready — no download, no subscription, just tap to switch. - Five typography controls — font size, line spacing, letter spacing, paragraph spacing, and reading width — adjusted live so you see the effect immediately. - Color themes and tinted overlays (cream, sepia, dark, high-contrast, and more) reduce visual stress without needing special glasses. - Saved Library keeps your reformatted documents ready to reopen — no re-importing. - PDF import extracts text from PDF files so you can reformat reports, articles, and study materials you already have. Perfect for: Adults with dyslexia who read for work, study, or daily life and want a faster, more comfortable way to get through text — without a monthly subscription and without handing their documents to a cloud service. Free to use: Paste text, reformat with OpenDyslexic and spacing controls, use Focus Reading Mode, listen with text-to-speech, and save a few documents — all free, no time limit. Lexable Pro (one-time purchase, $4.99): Unlock unlimited PDF imports, the full color theme library, finer voice and speed controls for text-to-speech, and an unlimited saved library. Pay once, use forever — no subscription, no renewal. Restore a previous purchase any time from the Lexable Pro screen or Settings. Your documents stay on your device. Lexable does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data or document content.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Solair AI at none against Lexable's shown. Solair AI also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Lexable's advantage is iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
