About this app
<p>Castmates is a private, on-device AI app for interactive character stories, running entirely on your iPhone. Most AI apps send every word you type to the cloud and make you sign in. Castmates doesn't — the model lives on your device, so your conversations are never sent to a server, there's no account, and it even works offline.</p>
<p>Meet a cast of 32 characters who actually stay in role. They don't reply like a chatbot — they narrate the scene, act, and remember what happened last time, so the story keeps building each time you come back.</p>
<p>A CAST FOR EVERY MOOD<br />
Meet 32 hand-crafted characters across 8 genres:<br />
• Companions — a loyal best friend, a warm life coach, a hype-man trainer<br />
• Romance — slow-burn crushes and devoted partners<br />
• Fantasy — elven rangers, dark knights, fae sorceresses, gentle orcs<br />
• Sci-Fi — sardonic ship AIs, starship captains, curious aliens<br />
• Anime — tsundere rivals, shy schoolmates, bubbly childhood friends<br />
• Historical — Regency nobles, samurai, Renaissance inventors, jazz-age icons<br />
• Mystery & Horror — noir detectives, vampire countesses, eerie keepers<br />
• Adventure — pirates, treasure hunters, wasteland survivors</p>
<p>DROP INTO A SCENE<br />
Every character comes with ready-made scenarios — 96 in all — so you can jump straight into a story, or set your own opening scene and tone.</p>
<p>BUILD YOUR OWN<br />
Create custom characters end to end: name, persona, greeting, appearance, tone, and a signature opening scene. Set their avatar from your photo library. They'll act exactly the way you wrote them.</p>
<p>PRIVATE BY DESIGN — ON-DEVICE AI<br />
The whole AI runs locally on your iPhone. After a one-time model download:<br />
• Your conversations are generated and stored on-device — never sent to a server<br />
• No account, no sign-up, no profile<br />
• Nothing is logged on our servers or used to train models<br />
• It keeps working in airplane mode — on a flight, on the subway, off the grid</p>
<p>THEY REMEMBER YOU<br />
Castmates summarizes past sessions, so characters recall who you are and pick up the thread days or weeks later.</p>
