## Local LLM Description
MITHRIL is a private AI assistant that runs on your iPhone and iPad. Your conversations are processed on the device and saved on the device. No account, no cloud, no tracking.

TWO KINDS OF MODELS
• Apple&#039;s on-device model, built into iOS 26 on devices with Apple Intelligence. Nothing to download.
• Open models from Hugging Face in GGUF format, from companies like Alibaba, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Mistral, DeepSeek and Liquid AI. Browse by company, see whether a model fits your device&#039;s memory before you download it, and switch any time.

AN ASSISTANT THAT CAN DO THINGS
It knows today&#039;s date, the time and your city from your device, and asks before it acts. Texts and emails open as drafts for you to review and send. Choose which abilities it can use:
• Reminders and calendar events
• Texts, email and phone calls
• Look up your contacts
• Directions and places nearby
• Run your Shortcuts
• Web search: Wikipedia, DuckDuckGo, or Brave with your own key
• Search your own documents
• Today&#039;s date and exact math

PRIVACY YOU CAN SEE
The Privacy map shows what runs on your device, what goes online, and exactly what is sent. A web search sends only the search words, never your conversation, and your location is only turned into a city name. A live list shows every network request MITHRIL makes.

VOICE
Dictate with Apple&#039;s speech recognition, or download NVIDIA Parakeet for more accurate on-device transcription. Hear answers in natural voices generated on the device. The floating assistant stays with you in Picture in Picture while you use other apps.

FOR THE CURIOUS
Tap the speed line under an answer for a live engine dashboard: tokens per second, time to first token, context use, cache hits and memory.

REQUIREMENTS
iOS 26. Apple&#039;s on-device model needs a device with Apple Intelligence. Open models run on any supported iPhone or iPad. Larger models need more memory, and MITHRIL shows what fits before you download.

Models are made by their publishers and downloaded from Hugging Face. MITHRIL doesn&#039;t train or host models.

## Local LLM Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great"
Great, it would be useful Latex format for formulas + RAG with reranker for local content.. Tiny models without RAG are bad.
-- rstm003, 2026-07-17

### ***** "Add Copy&amp;Pate please!"
Otherwise great, but lacks copy and paste of generated text… love the hugging face flexibility to import new models, such as the Qwen3.5 family (please make standard!)
-- MyUserReview, 2026-03-30

### ****- "Good but"
Needs a bit more stuff, like allowing to edit the system prompt. The rog feature is really good.
-- JasonGwarrior, 2026-02-20

### ***** "bug in iPhone xs"
Bug Report: Model Persistence and Startup Errors (iPhone XS)
App Version: Mithril (Local LLM) Device: iPhone XS iOS Version: [ ios 18.3.2]

Issue Summary

I am experiencing two main issues regarding model management and app startup:

Redundant Download Prompt: After successfully importing and downloading a custom model, the app prompts me to download it again every time I select it.

ExecuTorch Error: Every time the app opens, an &quot;ExecuTorch error&quot; appears, even though the model is already present on the device.

Steps to Reproduce

Import a custom model and complete the download process.

Select the model for use.

Observe the prompt asking to download the model again. (Current workaround: I close/force-quit the app to bypass this).

Re-open the app and observe the &quot;ExecuTorch error&quot; notification upon startup.

Expected Behavior

The app should recognize that the model is already stored locally and load it immediately without re-triggering the download prompt.

The app should launch without ExecuTorch errors if the model files are valid and present.

Additional Notes

Despite the error messages, the model does eventually work if I bypass the prompts.

I am using an iPhone XS, so there may be specific optimizations or memory constraints related to older A12 Bionic hardware that are triggering these flags.

### ****- "Works as described so far"
I’ve just started using the app and it’s working as described. There is one critical feature missing. It must have a way to quickly copy the generated text. Each request and response needs to be able to be copied easily. Preferably with a button or a shortcut. I will update my rating to 5 stars a fast as possible when this feature is added. If there is a stretch goal for this app I would like to be able to use text2image models as well. Great job, and keep up the great work.
-- Dallin Bastian, 2026-01-03

### ***** "Best app for local LLMs"
Currently the best App Store iOS app for running local LLMs. Despite its many shortcomings it still gets 5 stars simply because there is currently no competition to this app to my knowledge. It is the only app capable of running any model that’s compatible with llama.cpp. This allows the use of custom fine tuned models downloaded from Hugging Face which is essential as 4B parameters is about the maximum that an iPhone can currently handle. It really needs some improvements such as the ability to copy prompts and answers to the system clipboard. Currently the best workaround is to take a screenshot and use the iOS Live Text feature to copy the text to clipboard although this is impractical for long answers. 
Some other issues include the export data feature. The exported .json file is terribly formatted. 

The app has limited support for markdown and formatting.  Failing to render tables for example. 

Thinking models also have their output truncated making it impossible to see the models entire process. 

Browsing conversation history is annoying. It lacks search feature and is limited to past 100 conversations which is exasperated by the apps poor quality .json exports. 

A previous app I have used called “Locally AI” has a very good UX, but has tons of technical limitations.
-- Costelloem, 2026-01-03

### ***** "Perfect for local models"
This works better then I would expect on a phone. Would love to be able to host an openai style service on it with it.
-- the_real_Oo, 2025-12-15

### *---- "Clunky, impossible to paste API"
The app is clunky with no instructions. It doesn&#039;t allow API key to be pasted. Impossible to contact developer.
-- Tangerine Beach Resort, 2025-11-25
