facts verified 2026-08-10
A free mobile front end for local models, your own server, or donated GPUs; provider setup is the catch.
the catchThe app is only a front end, so a non-expert must configure a provider or server before getting the instant generation Dezgo supplies.

Mobile generation through local models, your own server or AI Horde; privacy depends on which route you choose.
