Ready for iPhone Duo
Chat Explorer adapts as you fold, unfold, and rotate, keeping your chat, your place in the Timeline, and your Explore results. On the unfolded display, the Pro options sit beside the feature list.

Chat Explorer 1.5 is ready for iPhone Duo, and faster and more reliable everywhere.
Ask AI follow-ups that remember the conversation, Timeline milestones you can trust, and smoother browsing on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Ask AI follow-ups that remember the conversation
Follow-up questions now understand the surrounding conversation and remember who and what you were asking about. Answers stay in your chosen AI language, and summaries can draw on messages written in other languages. Both are Beta: turn them on in Settings › Beta Features.
03
Timeline milestones you can trust
Milestones still under review are marked, so unconfirmed moments never look final. Busy days are reviewed using the messages that matter most, and stories and milestones are kept when a refresh fails.
04
Smoother and safer everywhere
Deleting files, importing archives, and sync checks no longer freeze the screen. Clearing caches runs in the background and shows its progress. Deleting a chat only removes its own archive, unlocked chats lock again in the background, and screens no longer get cut off on narrow iPhones, in landscape, or on iPhone Duo.
Everything 1.4.1 fixed is still here.
Chat Explorer 1.5 keeps every improvement from 1.4.1 and 1.4: live Apple Intelligence status, smarter multilingual answers, accessibility fixes, and crash-safe imports you can merge and recover.
Apple Intelligence availability now refreshes live
If Apple Intelligence is enabled, preparing, or becomes available while Chat Explorer is open, Explore now refreshes its status automatically instead of requiring a restart or reinstall.
Smarter multilingual conversational answers
Question intent classification and retrieval were tightened so ordinary statements are less likely to trigger Ask AI and grounded answers reject irrelevant evidence more reliably across supported languages.
Accessibility fixes across the app
Version 1.4.1 improves dynamic type reflow, media descriptions, live status semantics, and Topic Mind Map actions as part of the European Accessibility Act compliance pass.
Faster, crash-safe imports with merge and recovery
Import progress appears earlier, interrupted imports can recover safely, and newer exports can be merged into an existing archive without rebuilding the conversation from zero.
Update every device
Using Chat Explorer on more than one device? Update all of them to 1.5 so Timeline milestones stay in sync.
Still on-device by default
Your chats remain stored and analyzed on your device by default. Nothing in 1.5 changes that.
Apple Intelligence compatibility
Semantic exploration and generated conversation insights require a compatible Apple Intelligence device and availability in your language and region. Import, browsing, keyword search, media, and PDF tools remain available without it.
Bring your own AI provider
Chat Explorer will let you choose which AI runs each feature: Apple Private Cloud Compute, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, Google Gemini, or your own OpenAI-compatible server such as Ollama or LM Studio.
- Off by default. On-device stays the default for every feature.
- Uses your own account or API key. A server you run yourself needs no key.
- Requests go straight from your device to the provider you choose. Chat Explorer runs no servers in between.
- Locked chats stay on your device unless you allow it for that chat.
