PhoneClaw is a mobile-native local AI agent framework that turns phones into on-device agent runtimes, running Gemma models via LiteRT and MiniCPM-V on iOS. It provides native mobile Skills (Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, HealthKit, clipboard, image understanding, voice), a LiveLand Dynamic Island interaction mode, and optional LAN-based Mac Gateway inference with Ollama.

Use cases

  • run AI agents fully offline on my iPhone
  • ask my phone about health data with a local model
  • create reminders and calendar events via natural language on device
  • build phone-first local AI agent workflows
  • use on-device Gemma models with native iOS skills
  • offload agent inference to a Mac over LAN
  • interact with a local AI agent from the Dynamic Island

When to choose

  • you want a privacy-focused, fully offline AI agent on iOS
  • you need native access to phone capabilities like HealthKit, Calendar, and Contacts from an agent
  • you want on-device small model inference (Gemma via LiteRT) on mobile hardware
  • you want optional LAN edge inference without cloud dependency

When to avoid

  • you need an Android agent runtime (this iOS runtime is unrelated to same-named Android projects)
  • you need large frontier-model quality that phones cannot run locally
  • you need a cross-platform or server-side agent framework
  • you need cloud-hosted LLM APIs with broad tool ecosystems
