Image generation
What it does
Generate images on your Android phone with no PC and no internet connection. It uses the Snapdragon NPU for practical speed - SD1.5 needs Hexagon V68 or newer, SDXL needs Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or newer - and falls back to CPU or GPU on other chips, which is considerably slower. Because everything runs on the device, neither your prompts nor the generated images leave the phone. Built-in upscaling and NSFW filtering are included.
