Has anyone successfully run a local LLM on Android without cloud? What's your experience with on-device AI inference performance?

I've been experimenting with running a small LLM fully on-device on Android (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, 8GB RAM) using llama.cpp via NDK/JNI. No internet connection needed, everything processes locally.



So far I've tested Llama 3.2 3B and Phi-3.5 Mini with Q4_K_M quantization. Getting roughly 15–20 tokens/sec which is usable for a chat assistant.



Curious if others have done something similar:

\- What devices have you tested on and what performance did you get?

\- Have you tried GPU acceleration on Android (Vulkan/OpenCL)?

\- How do you handle the \~2GB model file distribution? Bundled in APK vs downloaded on first run?



Seems like on-device AI is becoming increasingly feasible on flagship Android hardware. Interested to hear others' experiences!

Notice: "EX File Manager" by Ace Mobile on the Play Store is a 1:1 clone of the banned ES File Explorer

Hey everyone,

​Just wanted to put out a notice about an app that just showed up on my Google Play Store homepage: EX File Manager by a developer named Ace Mobile (Package name: com.ace.ex.file.manager).

​I downloaded it to check it out, and it is basically a 1:1 copy of the classic ES File Explorer—the UI layout, the sidebar, the diagnostic features, and the overall navigation are completely identical.

​Right now, it definitely feels like a work in progress. A lot of the deeper settings are still hollowed out, and there are several pending features that are currently non-functional, such as the classic gesture options which are listed but can't be configured yet.

​This puts it in a really interesting spot. For context, the original ES File Explorer was permanently banned from the Play Store years ago due to severe legal and ethical violations, including massive click fraud and data tracking by its parent company.

​Honestly, if this app turns out to be genuinely safe and isn't just "Part 2" of the old ES team trying to sneak back onto the store under a shell developer profile, this would actually be great news. Like a lot of people, I've been looking for an app that looks and functions exactly like the old ES File Explorer ever since it disappeared.

​However, given the structural identity to the original code, it’s worth keeping an eye on. I wanted to put this on everyone's radar so people can check it out, see how the development progresses, and hopefully verify if it's safe to use.

​Link for anyone curious: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ace.ex.file.manager

Tenant Receipts – An app I built for renters

Hi everyone,

I know this subreddit has rules regarding self-promotion, and I completely understand why. I don't normally post about things I've made, so if this post doesn't meet the community guidelines or isn't appropriate here, I completely understand if the moderators remove it.

The reason I wanted to share it is because it came directly out of my own experience.

A while back I had to take my landlord to court over repairs they refused to make. What surprised me most wasn't the legal process—it was how much time I spent gathering evidence. I had to dig through months of text messages, emails, photos, and notes just to prove that I'd reported the issues and given my landlord opportunities to fix them.

After everything was over, I decided to build an Android app called Tenant Receipts to make that process easier for others.

Some of the features include:

Keeping repair requests and landlord communications organized in one place.
Attaching photos and supporting documentation.
Generating repair request letters, emails, or text messages.
Tracking follow-up reminders so requests don't get forgotten.
Maintaining a timeline of requests for your own records.
Providing state-specific tenant rights information and legal aid resources.

At the moment, the app is U.S.-only, as the tenant rights information, legal resources, and document templates are based on U.S. laws and organizations.

I didn't build it as a legal advice app or because I think everyone will end up in court. I built it because I wish I'd had something like this before I found myself scrambling to gather months of evidence.

If anyone would like to check it out, it's available on Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.novaworks.tenantreceipt

I'd also genuinely appreciate any feedback or feature suggestions. Since this was built from my own experience, hearing from other renters is one of the best ways I can continue improving it.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and if this post doesn't align with the subreddit's self-promotion rules, I completely understand if the moderators decide to remove it.
