FlowDown is a native AI chat client for iPhone, iPad, and Mac built with Swift and UIKit. It connects to OpenAI-compatible APIs, self-hosted inference servers, Apple Intelligence, or on-device MLX models with a privacy-first, no-telemetry design.

Use cases

  • chat with AI models on iPhone and Mac
  • connect to Ollama or LM Studio local models
  • run on-device MLX inference on Apple Silicon
  • use OpenAI-compatible API providers in a native client
  • chat with vision and audio-capable models
  • sync chat history across Apple devices via iCloud

When to choose

  • you want a fast native Apple-platforms chat UI instead of a web wrapper
  • privacy matters and you want no telemetry or data collection
  • you use self-hosted or OpenAI-compatible endpoints
  • you want on-device inference with MLX

When to avoid

  • you need a cross-platform client for Windows, Linux, or Android
  • you need team/enterprise chat management features
  • you primarily use non-OpenAI-compatible model APIs
