Your AI companion lives on your phone, not in the cloud.

Nudii is a virtual nudibranch sea slug powered by AI that runs entirely on your iPhone. No chat servers. No subscription to start. Your conversations stay on your device.

Be the first to know when Nudii launches.

Waitlist emails are handled by Formspree for this website. The Nudii app itself keeps your conversations on your device.

"The deep sea is calling. How was your day?"

🔒 Your conversations never leave your phone.

Nudii runs Gemma on your iPhone for chats. No Nudii chat servers. No account required. What you share with your nudii stays with your nudii.

How It Works

Private by design. Emotional by design too.

We keep the public story focused on what matters to players: the relationship, the privacy model, and the shape of the experience.

1

Hatch a real nudibranch species

Start with one of two free species, keep your egg warm for a short first-hour hatch, and name a companion that feels personal from day one.

2

Talk, care, and build memory

Conversations, care rituals, mini-games, and optional HealthKit activity all shape how your nudii responds and what it remembers.

3

Grow early, then deepen the bond

Your nudii evolves from Egg to Veliger, Juvenile, Adult, Mythic, and eventually Departed. Visible changes start fast; Mythic is still earned, never purchased.

4

Keep everything on your iPhone

The app is built around on-device AI and local storage, which is why it needs newer hardware and a larger download than a typical pet app.

Features

A companion that actually remembers you.

Built on real marine biology and real on-device AI — not a chatbot with a cute skin.

On-Device AI

Powered by Google's Gemma model running on your iPhone 15 Pro or later. Core chats stay on-device instead of being routed through Nudii servers.

Long-Term Memory

Your nudii remembers what you've talked about and brings it up naturally. It builds a real picture of your life over time — all stored locally on your phone.

Genuine Evolution

Six phases with a friendlier arc — a short first-hour Egg, then Veliger, Juvenile, Adult, Mythic, and Departed. Each phase changes the relationship. Mythic must be earned; it can't be bought.

Rare Mood Days

About once a week, your nudii enters a special mood — Philosophical, Extra Playful, Mysteriously Quiet, or Glowing. It changes every interaction for that full day.

Interactive Care

Feed it, clean it, put it to sleep, and play six retro mini-games with it. Real-world steps and workouts via HealthKit earn your nudii bonuses.

Species-Specific Music

Every nudibranch species has its own AI-generated music track — Latin Pop, K-Pop, Afropop, Kawaii, Cinematic, and more. All original and copyright-free.

Species

8 real nudibranchs. 8 unique personalities.

Each species is based on a real nudibranch — with real biology informing how they act, what they say, and how they grow. Two species are free to start; six more are available as one-time purchases.

FAQ

A few honest answers up front.

The product is unusual, so the website should answer the unusual questions directly.

Why does Nudii need an iPhone 15 Pro or later?

The AI model runs on the phone itself instead of on a server. That privacy-first approach needs more RAM than older iPhones reliably provide, so we’d rather be clear than over-promise.

Why is the app around 2.5 GB?

Because the model and artwork live with the app. The size is a tradeoff: larger download, but no cloud dependency for conversations.

Is everything completely offline?

Your chats, memories, and pet state are designed to stay on-device. Purchases are handled by Apple, optional website waitlist signups are handled separately, and support/privacy emails reach us when you contact us. If you turn on voice input in the app, audio is sent through Apple’s speech recognition APIs for transcription (same idea as dictation elsewhere on iOS)—we don’t run our own servers for that.

Can I get a departed nudii back?

Yes. Deep Diver Premium includes revival. The farewell still matters, but the relationship does not have to end there if you want to continue it.

Privacy Policy

The app is private by default. The website only receives what you intentionally send us.

Last updated: April 2026

Nudii is designed from the ground up to be private. The app’s AI model runs on your device, and your conversations, memories, and pet data are stored locally using Apple’s frameworks instead of being sent to our servers.

App data stored on your device

The Nudii app stores the following data locally on your device. We do not use our own cloud backend to receive or store this information:

  • Your name — entered during onboarding to personalise AI responses. Stored on-device only.
  • Conversation history — all chat messages with your nudii. Stored locally, used by the on-device AI for context. Never transmitted.
  • Pet state — your nudii's name, species, stats, and evolution stage. Stored via SwiftData.
  • Health data (optional) — if you grant HealthKit access, Nudii reads your step count and workout data to award your nudii bonuses. This data is read-only, never written back, never transmitted, and never retained between sessions.
  • Speech data (optional) — if you use voice input, audio is sent through Apple’s speech recognition APIs for transcription. We do not store those recordings on our own servers.

Website and contact data

If you join the waitlist, email support, or email privacy, you are intentionally sending contact information through website or email providers so we can respond. That is separate from the in-app privacy model.

In-app purchases

All purchases are processed by Apple via StoreKit 2. We do not receive, process, or store any payment information. Apple's privacy policy governs all transactions.

Analytics and advertising

Nudii contains no advertising SDKs and no third-party tracking inside the app. There are no ads in the app.

Children's privacy

Nudii is intended for users aged 13 and over. We do not operate our own servers to store your chats or pet data; that information stays on your device. Website or support contact is optional and separate. If you use voice input, Apple’s systems process audio for transcription under Apple’s policies.

Data deletion

All data is stored on your device. To delete all Nudii data, uninstall the app. Everything goes with it — there is no server-side copy.

Changes to this policy

We will update this page if our privacy practices change. Continued use of the app after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

❓ Quick Answers

Why is the app 2.5 GB? The AI model lives entirely on your phone — that's what makes it private. It needs space to be smart.

Can I recover a departed nudii? Yes, with Deep Diver Premium you can revive a departed nudii.
