Foundry Local runs generative AI models directly on Android devices, keeping inference and data on-device. This is the first public release of Foundry Local for Android.

Choose where inference runs

For most apps, use IPC mode to keep the client APK small and run inference through the Foundry Local service app. Use embedded mode when the app must be fully self-contained.

  • IPC mode — Connect to the separately installed Foundry Local service app over Android IPC.
  • Embedded mode — Bundle the inference engine directly into the app with no service app dependency.

Included capabilities

  • Orchestrate catalog discovery, model download, loading, inference, and cleanup through a unified manager API.
  • Browse the on-device model catalog and retrieve model information.
  • Download models with progress reporting and cancellation.
  • Check model cache and load state.
  • Load, use, unload, and remove cached models.
  • Run chat completions and stream generated responses.
  • Maintain multi-turn conversation history.
  • Transcribe audio files.
  • Stream file transcription results.
  • Transcribe live microphone audio.
  • Use the same coroutine-based public API across IPC and embedded deployment.

Requirements

  • Minimum API level: 33 (Android 13).
  • Target API level: 36.
  • The Foundry Local service app is required only for IPC mode and is distributed separately.
