OnBoard is a personal intelligent space that runs completely locally on your device. Powered by Google's Gemma 4 language model and LiteRT-LM technology, the app delivers instant responses without relying on third-party servers, cloud computing, or subscriptions. Everything you write, record, or upload stays exclusively on your iPhone. MAIN FEATURES: โ€ข Local Text Chat: A fully featured intelligent assistant that speaks and thinks offline. โ€ข Image Analysis: Upload photos from your gallery or take pictures with your camera โ€” the AI will help identify objects, read text, or analyze details. โ€ข Voice Notes and Queries: Local transcription converts your voice into text and instantly passes it to the model for analysis. โ€ข Flexible Settings: Control the "creativity" of responses by adjusting Temperature, Top-P, Top-K, and manage the context window size. OPTIONAL WEB SEARCH: Need current news, exchange rates, or the weather? Simply connect your own search service API key in the settings. SECURITY AND PRIVACY: The app does not collect, store, or share your conversations. The model is integrated directly into the app and utilizes the power of your iPhone's GPU. Your thoughts, ideas, and diary entries belong to you alone.
