I replaced Chrome with a local AI browser on my Pixel and it's almost too good to be free
"Puma Browser is a free mobile AI-centric web browser. Puma Browser allows you to make use of Local AI. You can select from several LLMs, ranging in size and scope. On those rare occasions when I use AI, I always opt for a local version. Most often, that comes in the form of Ollama installed on a desktop or laptop."
"Please note that local AI on Puma Browser is still in the experimental phase, so it may encounter issues. As well, downloading an LLM will take some time. You should also ensure that you are connected to a wireless network; otherwise, the download will consume your data plan and take a long time. You can download any of the available LLMs for Puma Browser. Screenshot by Jack W"
Puma Browser provides a free mobile browser that supports Local AI by allowing users to download and run on-device LLMs. Available models include Qwen 3 1.5b, Qwen 3 4B, LFM2 variants, Google Gemma 3n E2B, and more. Installation and testing on a Pixel 9 Pro included downloading Qwen 3 1.5b to evaluate speed and resource impact. Local LLMs can be resource- and storage-intensive, and performance can vary on mobile hardware. Local AI support is experimental and may encounter issues. Large model downloads should use Wi-Fi to avoid data overages and long transfer times.
