About Ethereal Engine: Local AI Chat

Ethereal Engine turns your phone into a private AI assistant — a full AI chatbot that runs 100% offline. Download a free AI model once, then chat with no internet, no cloud, no account, and no limits.

Your conversations never leave your device. Ever.

⚡ TRUE ON-DEVICE AI
All AI processing happens locally using llama.cpp, a high-performance inference engine optimized for mobile. Works in airplane mode — your private AI chat is always available, even with zero signal.

🖼️ AI THAT CAN SEE — NEW
Send photos or snap a picture with the camera and let vision AI models describe, explain, or answer questions about what they see — all offline.

📷 SCAN & TRANSLATE TEXT — NEW
Point your camera at any text to extract it instantly (OCR), then summarize or translate it with AI. Supports Latin, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Devanagari scripts.

📄 CHAT WITH YOUR DOCUMENTS — NEW
Attach PDFs, text files, code, CSV, JSON, or markdown and ask questions about them. Your files stay on your phone.

🛠️ STUDIO: BUILD MINI APPS — NEW
Describe an app and watch the AI build it — calculators, trackers, little games — then pin them to your home screen. All generated offline.

🚀 ASK ETHEREAL ANYWHERE — NEW
Select text in any app and send it straight to your AI through Android's share menu — summarize articles, explain code, rewrite messages.

📥 FREE OPEN-SOURCE AI MODELS
Browse a curated selection of mobile-optimized GGUF models from Hugging Face — Gemma, Qwen, Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, and more — or search the full catalog. From lightweight 1B models to powerful 10B models, pick the size that fits your phone's RAM and storage.

💬 FULL-FEATURED CHAT
• Multiple conversations with persistent history
• Per-chat model selection, settings, and system prompts (personas)
• Thinking mode for step-by-step reasoning
• Markdown rendering with syntax-highlighted code blocks
• Smart defaults tune each model family automatically
• Turbo decoding for faster responses

⚙️ BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE
• ARM-optimized inference for fast generation on modern phones
• Smart CPU core detection for the best speed/battery balance
• Downloads resume automatically and continue in the background

🌍 10 LANGUAGES
English, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Hindi.

🔒 PRIVACY BY DESIGN
• Zero data collection — no analytics, no tracking, no ads
• No account or sign-up required
• No internet needed after downloading a model
• Chats stored locally, protected by Android encryption

Whether you need a private AI assistant, an offline AI translator for travel, a local LLM playground, or an AI that reads documents and photos without uploading them anywhere — Ethereal Engine is your AI, on your phone, working for you alone.

The application could be improved by incorporating support for side‑loading local, on‑device .gguf model files, in addition to the existing capability to access models hosted on HuggingFace.
