What people say once they've set it up
App Store and Play reviews, forum threads, posts on X, and notes people leave on Buy Me a Coffee.
Much prefer this to creating a web app shortcut.
The UI is far superior to what OpenWebUI has as a PWA.
Conduit is amazing... Well worth the price.
I can have a mobile experience as robust as anything I get from Anthropic.
Conduit is the primary native Android client for OpenWebUI.
a great and easy companion app for OWUI
really good UI and no issues with connecting to the OWUI server!
this app is just plain perfect well done.
love the implementation thus far!
UI is on par with ChatGPT app. Great app, dev is quick to fix bugs.
really polished and impressive!
It brings OWUI to the level of ChatGPT/Claude.
Thanks — it's just the app I thought should exist.
Served to my phone with tailscale… app on my phone via Conduit. Local models are absolutely viable now!
This was definitely a missing piece of the local hosting puzzle, thank you!
One of the few with a functional iOS Share Sheet. Kudos to you!
What an excellent app, thank you for your contribution to making it easier to detach from tech giants.
Conduit connecting to my vLLM-studio via Open WebUI.
Great job! This completes the self-hosted AI setup.
I love the app. It is so well made. Greetings from another dev here!
Thank you for creating this interface. I'm not a computer person and it is easy for my independent AI model on my home system to be accessed via my phone remotely.
Super app. I use this with my self-hosted AI services and it is solid.
Amazing work with Conduit, congrats on that neat, clean and responsive piece of art.
Good work you're doing plugging a genuine gap.
Nice app bro, streaming output with my Hermes agent is looking so good.
Thick apps are underrated, thank you!

Bring your own backend.
On first launch Conduit asks how you want to connect. Pick one, add the others later, and skip any sign-in you don't need.
Direct
OpenAI-compatible, Ollama, OpenRouter
Talk to a provider or a model running on your own machine. Bring an API key or skip it entirely. No Open WebUI account required.
Hermes
Your self-hosted agent
Tool calls stream in as they run, and sensitive steps wait for your approval. Scheduled jobs keep going after you lock the phone.
How it looks on a phone.
A live reply that keeps its place. Login that matches your reverse proxy. Notes and tools as real screens.
Real-time chat that holds up on mobile.
Tokens stream over a WebSocket, so replies start immediately and long sessions stay connected. The transcript stays put as the response grows. Long chats load without stalling.
Auth that matches how you actually deploy.
Password, LDAP, JWT, custom headers, SSO, OAuth, reverse-proxy cookies. The methods your server already has.
Workspace, notes, and channels on a phone.
Models, knowledge, prompts, tools, and skills each get a native screen. Notes pick their own titles, channels have threads, and the share sheet puts text, links, and images into a prompt.

Before you install.
Do I need an Open WebUI server to use Conduit?
No. Conduit connects to an Open WebUI deployment you control, but it also talks directly to OpenAI-compatible APIs, Ollama, and OpenRouter, or to your own Hermes agent. Pick a backend on first launch and add the others whenever you like.
What can I connect to directly, without a server?
Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint using Chat Completions or Responses, including LM Studio and Azure-style deployments, plus native Ollama and first-party OpenRouter. Bring an API key, or skip it for a local endpoint that doesn't need one.
What is Hermes?
A self-hosted agent. Point Conduit at your Hermes server. Tool calls show as they run, sensitive steps ask for approval, and jobs can run on a schedule. Conduit only shows capabilities your server reports.
Which authentication methods are supported?
Username and password, LDAP, JWT, custom headers, SSO and OAuth providers, plus reverse-proxy login flows.
Does Conduit work behind reverse proxies?
Yes, including oauth2-proxy, Authelia, Authentik, Pangolin and Cloudflare Tunnel. Conduit handles the cookies and session state on-device.
Where is my data stored?
Chats, notes, and drafts stay on your device, including offline. Credentials live in iOS Keychain or Android Keystore via Flutter Secure Storage, never in plain-text local storage. Nothing is relayed through a backend the developer operates.
Is it really free and open source?
Yes. GPL-3.0, developed in the open on GitHub. No paid tiers, no premium gates.
Which platforms and versions are supported?
Android 7.0+ (API 24) and iOS 16.0+. Built with Flutter on a Dart 3.9+ toolchain.
