Falcon File Manager vs Local LLM

Falcon File Manager is a private home for your videos, music, photos, and files. Bring in your media or connect your cloud storage, organise it your way, and play almost anything in one app. ORGANISE EVERYTHING Sort your library into folders with different icons, and choose from over 50 layout options. Mark last opened shows the last item you opened in each folder, so you can jump straight back in. SEARCH, FAVOURITES AND TAGS Search a folder or your whole library, filter by file type, mark favourites, and organise files with your own coloured tags. VIDEO PLAYER A powerful player for MP4, MOV, M4V, MKV, AVI, FLV, WMV, WebM, and TS. It plays HDR video, loads embedded and SRT subtitles, supports picture in picture, plays at 0.25x to 5x, and remembers where you left off. Bookmark places to jump back to. MUSIC PLAYER Play music and audiobooks in MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, WAV, and OGG. Build playlists, see album artwork, edit music tags, set a sleep timer, and keep playing in the background. Smart Resume picks long tracks back up where you stopped, ideal for audiobooks. Apple Music is also supported. PHOTOS AND LIVE PHOTOS Supports JPG, PNG, HEIC, AVIF, DNG RAW, animated GIF, and WebP, including HDR photos. Live Photos play with sound, and you can browse your Apple Photos library in the app. DOCUMENTS AND OTHER FILES Open PDFs and ePub books, read and edit text and code files including TXT, Markdown, JSON, XML, YAML, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and preview Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Pages documents. Scan documents and create text files on the spot. Falcon stores any file type, even ones it cannot open. LINKED FOLDERS AND CLOUD Link folders from the Files app, iCloud Drive, or a USB drive and work with them in place, with no need to import. Connect Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, and pCloud to browse, play and edit your files where they are, or open the shared folders on your computer or NAS. Everything stays where it is and in sync. BIGGER SCREENS Made for iPad and iPhone Duo. Side by Side opens a photo, video, or document in one half of the screen while your folders stay open in the other. PRIVATE Your files stay on your device, with no account, no tracking, and nothing synced to our servers. Cloud accounts sign in on the service's own page, and your files travel directly between your device and that service. If you use iCloud Backup, your data is included in your own personal device backup, by your choice. Lock private folders with a PIN, Face ID, or Touch ID. THEMES Choose from over 35 themes, each with light and dark variants, or design your own in Theme Studio. Give any folder its own header photo, and switch the app icon to match. CAST TO YOUR TV Send videos to the big screen with AirPlay, Screen Mirroring, Google Cast, and DLNA, with surround sound through your TV or home theatre. Music can play to AirPlay too. FILE TRANSFER Wi-Fi Transfer: move files between your device and your computer through a web browser, with no cable or extra software. Network drive: open your folders on a Mac or PC like any other drive, and browse, copy, rename and delete straight from Finder or File Explorer. Portal Folder: stream or download files between iPhones and iPads over Wi-Fi. ZIP AND ARCHIVES Create password-protected zip files with AES-256 encryption, and extract ZIP, RAR, and 7z archives, including password-protected and multi-part ones. FIND DUPLICATES Track down duplicate files across your library, including folders you have linked. APPLE WATCH Put music, audiobooks, photos, videos, and PDFs on your Apple Watch, or use it as a remote for the music on your iPhone.

Local LLM runs language models on your iPhone. No account is required. Chat, ask about photos, work with documents and use live voice. With Canvas, build websites, interactive pages and games from a conversation, then preview and edit them in the app. Features depend on the selected model. Download models from the catalog, or use Apple’s on-device model on supported devices when available. Core AI models require iOS 27 or later. Other supported models remain available on older systems. Inference and conversation history stay on your device. Model downloads, the catalog and model artwork use the network. Optional Web Search sends a query derived from your message to Tavily and may read result websites. Weather requests use Apple geocoding and WeatherKit for the requested city, without requesting device location. Voice input prefers on-device recognition. If it is unavailable or fails, Apple’s online speech service may process audio when network speech recognition is enabled. You can disable this in Privacy settings. Requires iOS 17 or later. Model availability depends on your device, OS, memory and storage. Downloads require internet; supported offline chat works after setup. Models can make mistakes. Do not rely on replies for medical, legal or financial decisions.
