About Ollama App
Ollama App gives you a chat interface for models served by Ollama. It does not run models itself; it connects to an Ollama server on your computer or home network, so conversations stay on hardware you control.
It is built with Flutter, with builds for Android, Windows and Linux. It suits people who already run Ollama and want a clean chat app on their phone or desktop instead of the command line.
