User reviews
Does exactly what it says does, nothing more or less, which is why it's good. Responses are pretty quick. Has a UI for downloading models internally which is handy. It does crash when I try some of the larger 2gb models.. but I'm running it on phone so anything is great.
Works great, running llama 3.2 3b Q8_0 at 9.8 tokens per second, almost as fast as I can read!
Could you consider adding a feature to change the prompt? Thx!
Love it. Please keep building on this. Would love to see Moondream or any of the 3B vision models on this. Screenshots would add a lot to chats.
This app works well. I think it needs some improvement in some ways, like adding vision support for llama 2.3, or deleting messages. However, considering this app has no ads, and doesn't claim to share data, I'm giving it 5 stars.
It would be great to have ability for reading latex formulas
