[Open Source] I built a free iOS transcription app with Local Whisper + a local LLM for iPhones without Apple Intelligence
The main thing I wanted to solve: many iPhones still don’t support Apple Intelligence, but they are capable enough to run useful local models.
So I added:
- Local Whisper transcription
- A local LLM summary path
- On-device searchable recordings
- Optional Apple system transcription where available
I’m looking for TestFlight feedback, especially from people using older/non-Apple-Intelligence iPhones.
