Onde for iPhone

Your conversations stay on your phone.

Onde is a private assistant. It answers on the device, and it hands a bigger job to a cloud helper only when you say so. This page says exactly what that involves.

Last updated: 2026-10-30. The app is published by Splitfire AB. The Onde Inference privacy policy covers our website and accounts.

On the device

What never leaves.

The model

Onde runs a small open model on your iPhone. You download it once, about 1 GB, and it answers without a network connection.

Your conversation

What you type and what the model replies stay on the device. They are not sent to us, to analytics, or to anyone else.

No tracking

There are no analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs in the app, and we do not build a profile of you.

Cloud helpers

What leaves, and when.

Only the job you approve in the consent sheet is sent, over HTTPS, to the helper runner. Nothing else is.

You see it first

Before a job leaves your phone, a consent sheet shows the exact payload: the task, any note you added and the constraints. Nothing is sent until you tap Send to helper.

Sensitive details are masked

On the device, a sanitiser replaces email addresses, phone numbers, card numbers, IBANs and API keys before the payload is built. The sheet tells you what it kept back.

One job, one computer

Your Onde account sign-in token is sent with the request and handed to the helper for that single job. The helper runs in its own microVM, and the microVM is destroyed when the job ends.

Your account

Linked to you only when you sign in.

Only if you sign in

Helpers need a Onde account. If you never sign in, Onde never contacts the cloud, and no account data is involved.

What the account holds

Your account email address, managed by your Onde account. That is the only data linked to you, and only once you sign in.

Your conversation is not part of it

A helper job contains only the payload you approved. The conversation and the on-device model's history never leave the phone.
