Pink AI is a chat app that runs entirely on your iPhone. Every reply is generated locally using Apple Intelligence. Your conversations never leave the device. There is no account, no sign-in, and no in-app purchases. Pink AI needs an iPhone 15 Pro or newer, an iPad with M1 or later, or iPad mini with A17 Pro, with Apple Intelligence turned on. On other devices it can't write replies. WHAT IT DOES - Type a message and get a reply, generated locally on your iPhone - Past conversations are saved on device so you can revisit them - Start a new conversation any time, no daily limit - Replies appear as they are written, and Pink AI remembers the recent conversation, even in a chat you reopen - Simple to use, nothing to set up WHAT YOU NEED - iPhone 15 Pro or newer, an iPad with M1 or later, or iPad mini with A17 Pro - iOS 26 or later, with Apple Intelligence turned on in Settings - On a device without Apple Intelligence, Pink AI says so instead of replying NO THIRD-PARTY AI PROCESSORS Pink AI does not send your prompts, replies, or metadata to any third-party AI processor, cloud language model, or external server. The app makes no network calls to any AI service. All replies are produced by Apple Intelligence on your iPhone. PRIVACY Conversations are stored locally on your device. Pink AI does not call out to any server during chat. No accounts. No analytics. No third-party SDKs.
