Terms & Conditions
Pocket LM – Private Offline AI
Effective date: 27 October 2026
These terms and conditions apply to the Pocket LM app for mobile devices (iOS, iPadOS and Android), together with any related services operated by Junaid Tariq, operating as FlutterNinja (collectively, the "Application"). Junaid Tariq, operating as FlutterNinja, is hereby referred to as the "Service Provider".
By downloading or using the Application, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before using the Application.
Developer Details
The Application is owned and operated by:
- Operator: Junaid Tariq, operating as FlutterNinja
- Contact email:info@flutterninja.com
- Location: Islamabad, Pakistan
License to Use the Application
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Service Provider grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Application on your devices for personal or internal business purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Application, except as and only to the extent that applicable law expressly permits.
Price and Tips
The Application is free to download and use, and contains no advertising. Every feature is available without paying.
You can choose to support the developer with a tip ("Small coffee", "Medium coffee" or "Large coffee"): an optional, one-off in-app purchase. A tip does not unlock any feature or content, and you can buy one as often as you like. Payment is handled by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play) under their terms. Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies; for iOS purchases, you can request one atreportaproblem.apple.com.
If the Service Provider ever decides to charge for the Application or any part of it, the charges will be clearly communicated to you in advance.
AI Models and Their Output
The Application runs AI language models on your device. Please keep in mind:
- Output can be wrong. AI models, especially the small models that run on phones, can produce inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, biased or inappropriate content. Always review and verify output before relying on it.
- Not professional advice. Output is not medical, legal, financial or other professional advice. Consult a qualified professional for decisions that matter.
- You are responsible for how you use output, including anything you share, publish or act on.
Third-Party Models
The models the Application offers for download (for example Gemma, Qwen, Phi and DeepSeek) are created by third parties and distributed through Hugging Face under their creators' own licenses and terms of use. By downloading a model, you agree to comply with its license. Some models are "gated" and require you to accept their terms on Hugging Face first. The Service Provider does not create these models and makes no warranty about them. Model names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
Your Own Model Files
You can import model files of your own. You are responsible for having the right to use any model you import and for complying with its license. The Service Provider is not responsible for how an imported model behaves. Models too large for your device's memory may fail to load or cause the Application to close.
Cloud Models and Your API Keys
You can optionally add cloud models from providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, or your own server, using your own API key. When you do:
- your use of that provider is governed by your own agreement with them, including their terms, usage policies, prices and privacy policy;
- you are responsible for any charges the provider makes for your usage;
- your API key is stored on your device. Keep it safe, and remove it from the Application if it is compromised.
The Service Provider is not a party to your agreement with any cloud provider and is not responsible for their services, availability or output.
Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Application to:
- break the law, or infringe the intellectual property or privacy rights of others;
- create content that is abusive, threatening, harassing, defamatory or hateful, or that incites violence or illegal activity;
- create spam, phishing or malware, or deceive others with AI-generated content;
- break the license of any model you use.
Your Device, Data and Internet Use
Running AI models uses your device's storage, memory and battery, and long replies can warm your device. Model downloads can be large, from a few hundred megabytes to several gigabytes. The Application has a Wi-Fi-only download setting.
Downloading models and using cloud models need an internet connection. If you use the Application outside of Wi-Fi, your mobile network provider's terms still apply, and you may be charged for data, including roaming charges if you use the Application outside your home territory without disabling data roaming. If you are not the bill payer for the device, you are assumed to have the bill payer's permission.
Your chats and files are stored only on your device. It is your responsibility to keep your device secure and to back up anything you want to keep. The Service Provider strongly advises against jailbreaking or rooting your device, which can compromise its security and stop the Application from working correctly.
Siri and Shortcuts (iOS)
The Application's Siri and Shortcuts actions run in the background within the limits iOS sets. iOS may stop a long request before it finishes.
Intellectual Property
The Service Provider retains all intellectual property rights in the Application, including its code, design, trademarks, logos and branding. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use them. Third-party models, services and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
Relationship with Apple
For iOS and iPadOS users, this agreement is between you and Junaid Tariq (operating as FlutterNinja). It is not an agreement with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the Application or its content. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Application. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple will have no warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Application. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
Third-Party Services
The Application relies on third-party services that have their own terms:
- Hugging Face(model downloads)
- Apple Media Services(App Store)
- Google Play(distribution on Android)
- Any cloud model provider you choose to add
Updates and Termination
The Service Provider may update the Application from time to time, and its requirements may change. You may need to install updates to keep using it. The Service Provider does not guarantee that the Application will always be updated or compatible with your device or operating system version. The Service Provider may also stop providing the Application at any time, without notice.
The Service Provider may end your right to use the Application if you materially breach these Terms. Upon termination, you must stop using the Application and delete it from your devices.
Limitation of Liability
The Application is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service Provider shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, including lost profits, data loss or business interruption, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. This includes any loss arising from reliance on AI-generated output, third-party models or cloud services.
However, the Service Provider retains full liability for:
- death or personal injury caused by negligence;
- fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation;
- any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
Because the Application is provided free of charge, the Service Provider's total liability for any claim is limited to the minimum amount permitted by applicable law. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under consumer protection laws that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Indemnification
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Service Provider from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your breach of these Terms or your intentional misuse of the Application. This does not apply to claims arising from the Service Provider's own negligence, breach of these Terms, or violation of applicable law.
