zitto

Ask anything. Tell no one.

Zitto is an AI that runs on your iPhone. What you ask stays on your phone and belongs to you. No account, no servers, no copy anywhere else.

One model download, then it works offline.

Your data never becomes ours.

The difference is where your question goes.

Zitto

Your question Your iPhone
That is the whole journey. It never becomes a record anywhere else.

You hold the only copy

Your chats are saved on your iPhone and nowhere else. We could not read them, sell them or hand them over, because we never have them. Export them as a file to move to a new iPhone.

Only you can open it

Zitto locks with Face ID, so your history stays closed to anyone who picks up your phone.

It stays out of the cloud

Chats are left out of your iCloud backup unless you decide otherwise.

You can destroy it

Erase everything removes every chat, model and setting. There is no other copy to chase.

The Privacy screen in Zitto. Network activity reads: nothing sent since setup. Below are switches for Face ID lock and keeping chats out of iCloud backup.
The Privacy screen in the app

Don't take our word for it.

Every AI app says it is private. Zitto gives you three ways to check, and each takes under a minute.

Turn on airplane mode

Ask Zitto something. It answers the same, because the model is on your phone and nowhere else.

Open the Privacy screen

It lists every time Zitto has gone online, and why. Downloading a model is the only reason it ever does. A Zitto Plus purchase is handled by Apple's App Store, not by Zitto.

Tap Erase everything

Chats, models and settings are removed from your iPhone. There is nothing left anywhere else to delete.

What Zitto knows about you:

Nothing.

No accountYou never sign up or sign in.
No analytics in the appThe app contains no tracking or reporting code.
No adsThere is nothing to target, and no one to sell it to.
No chat serversZitto has no server that could receive your questions.

Piano, Mezzo or Forte.

Three models, from light to powerful. You download one, once, and it lives on your iPhone. Zitto suggests the best fit for your phone.

PianoAbout 625 MBLightest and quickest. Runs on any iPhone with iOS 17 or later.
MezzoAbout 1.7 GBFast and balanced, the everyday choice.
ForteAbout 3 GBThe most capable, a little slower, for recent Pro iPhones. Part of Zitto Plus.

Choosing a model in the app

A full assistant, all on the phone.

Show it things

Attach a screenshot, a photo, a PDF or a text file and ask about it. Every model reads images.

Talk to it

Dictate a question, have the answer read back, or hold a whole conversation by voice with Zitto Plus. Speech recognition is pinned to the device.

Trust the numbers

Arithmetic, percentages and unit conversions go through a calculator on your phone, not the model's memory.

Share to Zitto

Send a web page, a photo or a file from any app, or run "Ask Zitto" from Shortcuts.

Make it yours

Tell Zitto how to answer and what to remember about you. It stays on the phone with everything else.

Ask your files

Add PDFs, text files and images to the Library and Zitto answers from them, showing the page it used. They are read and indexed on your iPhone.

The honest trade-off

Zitto runs a small model on your phone, not in a data centre. It doesn't know today's news, it is less capable than the largest cloud assistants, and it can be wrong. It is built to say when it isn't sure, and to use a calculator on your phone rather than guess at numbers.

That is the trade: a little less power, and your questions stay yours.

Questions

Could Zitto ever see what I ask?

No. Your questions are answered by a model running on your iPhone, and Zitto has no server that could receive them.

Does it need the internet?

Only to download the model you choose. After that it works with no connection at all; a web page you share from Safari arrives as its text, and Zitto fetches nothing itself. Buying Zitto Plus goes through Apple's App Store, as with any app.

What happens to my chats?

They are saved on your iPhone, locked with Face ID, and left out of your iCloud backup unless you choose otherwise. You can erase them at any time.

Which model does it use?

Up to three, depending on your iPhone: Piano (about 625 MB), Mezzo (about 1.7 GB) or Forte (about 3 GB). Zitto suggests the best fit and only offers Piano where Mezzo does not fit. They are built on open-weight models, and the licences are listed in the app under Privacy, then Acknowledgements.

Your questions are yours. Keep them that way.
