User Reviews

3sparks Chat is praised for easy setup, strong local-LMM integration, and a one-time price, with active development and good iOS usability. However reviewers report reliability issues with local servers, billing problems, and notable feature gaps for power users, such as default prompts and backgrounding. Missing Live Activity, grounding options, drag-and-drop PDF support, and general background streaming pose recurring pain points. Overall, it's a solid option for local LLMs and a good value, but reliability and feature gaps limit broader adoption until addressed.
Pros
  • Easy to set up and get running, with quick connections to local LLMs via LM Studio, Ollama, or TailScale.
  • Active development and responsive support from the developer, with frequent updates and new features.
  • One-time purchase and no ongoing subscription, offering straightforward pricing.
  • Good support for local models and visual inputs (image enablement) and solid iOS integration.
  • Simple, intuitive UI that makes it easy to use for everyday tasks.
Cons
  • Reliability and performance issues when using local servers (connections fail, timeouts, slow or stuck LLMs).
  • Billing problems, including charges and difficulty canceling subscriptions.
  • Limited customization for power users (no default prompts, no locking of temperature/context/model, etc.).
  • Missing features and background behavior (no iOS Live Activity, no backgrounding while streaming, grounding/search missing for Gemini, no drag-and-drop/local PDFs).
  • Occasional model-specific quirks (garbled responses or compatibility issues with certain models).
Recent reviews
Every time we get an update, more things get broken. Now the app freezes and locks up during chats… you have to close the app and restart it, and your last prompt is gone and you have to redo everything. Can’t use it like this.

The developer seems to be constantly improving the app and for me it meets many of my used case needs with a back in connection to LM studio. I very much appreciate the image enablement.
