InnerBase AI is a private intelligence for your life. It listens, understands, and remembers on your device; without a signal, you can still capture, think, translate, reset, and meet your past self again. Your journal, chats, learning progress, and settings stay on your device. There is no cloud account, advertising, content tracking, or cloud inference server reading your words. One complete private-life loop: - Capture: speak one thought or write a few lines; on-device dictation saves no audio - Understand: let local AI polish without replacing your voice, then offer a restrained reflection - Reset: after saving, enter an optional Quiet Reset for one pressure-free minute - Remember: revisit weekly reflections, mood insights, and On This Day memories New Quiet Reset: - Thought Sort places one circling thought into act now, return later, or release - Quiet Sudoku includes notes, gentle correction, reveal-one hints, and autosave—with no timer, rankings, or streak pressure - Memory Match is a small local card game with no ads, countdown, or data collection - Reset activities never read your journal; Thought Sort clears when you leave More offline capability: - Keep chatting, dictating, or translating without a signal - Learn English, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Spanish, Italian, or Russian - Use Home and Lock Screen widgets, Siri, Shortcuts, Action Button, Live Activities, and Apple Watch mood logging - Optionally sync State of Mind with Health - Use 35 interface languages The first time you use full local AI, InnerBase asks before downloading a device-appropriate model and shows its size, network, and progress. It selects a stable tier for your iPhone and protects the experience under memory or thermal pressure. Manual journaling, on-device voice notes, Quiet Reset, and curated offline vocabulary need no AI model download. InnerBase AI includes a 7-day AI feature trial. After the trial, a one-time Lifetime Unlock keeps AI available—there is no monthly subscription. Purchases are handled by Apple's App Store and can be restored.
