User Reviews

Users praise On-Device AI for its broad, powerful feature set, offline/local operation, and support for many models and multi-agent workflows, plus strong web search and cross-device use. The app is seen as easy to set up and generally fast, with good privacy thanks to on-device processing. However, recurring complaints point to stability issues (crashes with large models or contexts, boot-time crashes) and persistent UI/UX drawbacks (scattered settings, lack of a manual). Functionality gaps repeatedly noted include exporting whole chats, inconsistent search behavior, and limits in client/local-server integration. Some users also question pricing transparency and battery/thermal impact on devices.
Pros
  • Extensive feature set with a wide range of models and flexible offline/local operation, including support for running large models via Mac LM Studio.
  • Built-in web search and deep information retrieval within chats.
  • Multi-agent / character support enabling creative, role-playing conversations.
  • Strong privacy and cross-device experience thanks to on-device processing and syncing across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro.
  • Easy setup and generally fast performance with a polished UI that improves over time.
Cons
  • Stability issues: crashes when sending prompts, with large contexts or large models, and occasional boot-time crashes.
  • Clunky UI/UX with settings scattered, lack of a manual, and learning curve.
  • Feature gaps: cannot export an entire chat, inconsistent or slow web search, and limited client/local-server integration (localhost/IP issues).
  • High resource usage on devices, leading to battery drain and overheating in some devices like iPad.
  • Pricing transparency concerns and some fees for advanced features, plus complaints about paid audio transcriptions and overall pricing policy.
