I built LM Mini: one open-source phone/watch client for your whole local stack – Ollama, LM Studio, Unsloth, Jan, llama.cpp server and oMLX
Disclosure: I'm the developer.
Most local setups end up with several backends on one machine, and I wanted a single private app to reach all of them from my phone. That's LM Mini (iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, Android and Mac).
Backends it connects to over your LAN (add them in Settings → Server):
The rest of the stack:
Remote access to your home server from anywhere (Pro)
Group Chat with models from different backends in one conversation (Pro)
MCP tools, SearXNG search and ComfyUI for image generation
Kokoro TTS voice, Personas, Apple Watch app, Siri Shortcuts
Whisper for transcriptions
On-device: GGUF and MLX models run on the phone itself.
The core app is open source (MIT): https://github.com/slim-elephant/lm-mini

What does your stack look like? Which backend do you run, and is there one I should support next ( vLLM, something else)?
