About LLM Pigeon
Put a full-featured AI assistant in your pocket—without sending a single word to any outside cloud.
LLM Pigeon works together with LLM Pigeon Server on your Mac.
• Type a message on your iPhone.
• The text is stored inside your private iCloud files.
• Your Mac picks it up, runs the large-language model locally, writes the reply, and CloudKit delivers the answer back to the phone.
Why you’ll love it
• 100 % privacy: messages never leave your own iCloud container; no analytics, no ads, no accounts. You can optionally add a search-engine API.
• Real LLMs: choose from a set of built-in models or point the server at LM Studio or Ollama to swap in any model you prefer.
How it works
1. Install LLM Pigeon Server (free) on a Mac that’s signed in with the same iCloud account.
2. Download the models you want and, if you’d like web search, enter a Serper API key.
3. Start a new chat in the iOS app.
4. Receive answers in seconds, even on hotel Wi-Fi.
Zero data collection
• No personal information
• No usage analytics
• No crash logs—everything stays on your devices
• If you enable web search, only the queries your LLM generates are sent to Serper.
Requirements
• iPhone running iOS 17 or later
• Mac running macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later with LLM Pigeon Server installed
• iCloud Drive enabled on both devices
