Summary
LM Manager Pro is a local-first iOS and iPadOS app for managing
LM Studio inference servers and cloud AI providers. There are no
accounts, no analytics, no crash reporting, and no telemetry of any
kind. Everything you create — machines, personas, chat history,
episodes, scores — stays on your device.
What we store on your device
-
App data (SwiftData): machine configurations, AI personas,
teams, projects, chat sessions and messages, episodes, scoring
history, and prompt templates. Stored locally in the iOS sandbox
for this app only.
-
API keys (iOS Keychain): if you choose to use cloud
providers, your API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Qwen
are stored securely in the iOS Keychain. They are used only to
make API calls on your behalf and never sent anywhere else.
-
Settings (UserDefaults): non-sensitive preferences
such as theme, default sort order, and feature toggles.
What leaves your device
The app makes network requests only in these situations:
-
Local LM Studio servers: the app connects to machines you
explicitly add — over your local network or your Tailscale VPN —
to load models and run inference. These connections never touch
the public internet.
-
Cloud AI providers (only when you choose a cloud model):
prompts, attached images, and any chat context are sent to the
provider you selected. Each provider has its own privacy policy
that governs that data:
We do not relay, log, store, or proxy these requests — they go directly
from your device to the provider's API endpoint.
-
Web search (DuckDuckGo, optional, per persona): if you enable
web search for a persona, the app sends the persona's search query
to DuckDuckGo.
That is the complete list. There are no other network calls.
Voice features
Speech-to-text (dictation) and text-to-speech use Apple's on-device
speech and synthesis frameworks. Voice data does not leave your
device for these features.
Analytics, tracking, and ads
None. The app contains no analytics SDKs, no crash reporting,
no advertising identifiers, no third-party trackers, and no cookies.
Nothing is sent to us about how you use the app — because there is
no server.
Children's privacy
LM Manager Pro is rated 4+. Because we do not collect data from
anyone, we do not collect data from children. If you choose to use
cloud AI providers, those providers' age policies apply.
Your data, your device
You can export your full dataset as JSON for backup or migration to a
new device, and import it back with one tap. Deleting the app from
your device removes all locally stored data, including Keychain entries
created by the app.
Changes to this policy
If this policy ever changes, we'll update the date below and post the
new version at this URL. Material changes will also be noted in the
app's release notes.
