On-device models

Know which models are installed on your device

Review local model availability and choose an on-device workflow where it fits.

On-device models can support translation and related workflows without sending those model requests to a cloud provider. The model manager helps you see the local model setup and what is available on your device.

01

Check what is ready locally

The model manager lists supported model packs and their installation state. Model availability, storage use, and supported tasks vary by device and app configuration.

02

Install only what your workflow needs

Model packs can require meaningful storage. Review the model details before downloading, and remove packs you no longer use to reclaim space.

03

Offline and privacy depend on the selected path

After a compatible model is installed, supported tasks can run locally. Other tasks may still need a network connection or a different model. Confirm the selected engine in the app when the handling of a request matters.
