Small language models and on-device ML unlock private, instant AI features.

Classification, OCR, speech-to-text, image understanding, and small LLMs for summarisation and smart replies.
Complex reasoning, large context, and anything needing live data still belong to cloud models. Hybrid routing gives users the best of both.
Models must be quantised and lazy-loaded. We benchmark on low-end devices before committing.
Mobile users expect apps that are fast, work anywhere, and feel intelligent. In 2026 that means offline-first architecture, on-device AI, and disciplined store optimisation. This guide covers what we build into every mobile project and how it affects retention and ratings.
| Feature | User impact | Business impact |
|---|---|---|
| Offline support | Works in lifts, planes, rural areas | Higher retention in field and travel use cases |
| On-device AI | Instant, private features | Lower cloud costs, stronger privacy story |
| Push done right | Relevant, timely, not spammy | Re-engagement without uninstalls |
| Fast cold start | Under 2 seconds | Fewer abandons, better ratings |
