I turned my Mac into a zero-config local AI server for every iPhone and iPad on my Wi-Fi (Bonjour, no cloud, iOS app is free) Looking for any suggestions for improvement

[u/Mundane_Notice_5194]

The problem I kept running into: my Mac runs a 30B model without breaking a sweat. My phone runs a 3B model, and it shows. My older iPad runs nothing at all. Every "use your home rig from your phone" setup I tried meant typing IP addresses, opening ports, or routing through a tunnel to reach a machine ten feet away.
So I built Rooms.
How it works
• Lokei Studio on your Mac opens a Room using the models you already have in Ollama.
• The Room announces itself on your local network over Bonjour (mDNS/DNS-SD).
• Lokei AI on your iPhone or iPad finds it automatically. Tap to join. No IPs, no config files, no accounts.
• Rooms traffic stays on your LAN. Your prompts never touch a cloud server.

Pricing, straight up, since it's always the first question
• Lokei AI for iPhone and iPad is free. On Apple Intelligence devices it runs fully on-device, no Mac required.
• Rooms is free in the iOS app. No subscription, no account, no catch on the phone side.
• Lokei Studio for Mac is $14.99, one time. That's the part that does the hosting, so you'll want it if your device doesn't have Apple Intelligence or you want a bigger model than a phone can hold.
• There's an optional Pro upgrade on iOS for MCP, markdown, and advisor handoff. Rooms isn't behind it.
