Store listing

Full description
Maskan is a private, Arabic-first AI chat app that puts you in control of your conversations and your data. Most AI chat apps route your messages through their own servers, log your activity, and show you ads. Maskan does none of that. It uses a "bring your own key" (BYOK) model: you connect your own API key and your messages go straight from your phone to the AI provider you choose — no middleman, no tracking. WHY MASKAN Private by design — no analytics, no telemetry, no ads, no data collection Encrypted on your device — conversations and API keys are stored with strong encryption Arabic-first — built for Arabic with full right-to-left (RTL) support, plus English and Thai Open source — fully auditable, licensed under GPL-3.0, available on F-Droid Your key, your choice — connect any of 12 AI providers CONNECT 12 AI PROVIDERS Bring your own API key and chat with the model you prefer: DeepSeek, OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Groq, Together AI, Mistral, Venice AI, and OpenRouter — or run models locally with Ollama and LM Studio, or add any custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint. FEATURES Fast streaming AI chat with live, token-by-token replies Voice input and text-to-speech narration Image input for vision-capable models Markdown rendering for clean, readable answers Attach text files to your chat Search your full conversation history Export conversations as text or Markdown Organize chats into folders Light and dark themes Anti-screenshot mode for sensitive conversations Three languages: Arabic, English, and Thai PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY Maskan is open source (GPL-3.0). Anyone can read the code and confirm exactly what it does and doesn't do. No trackers, no ads, no hidden network connections. Your API keys use Android's encrypted storage, and your chats live in an encrypted database on your device only. WHO IT'S FOR Anyone who wants a private AI assistant they can trust Arabic speakers seeking a true Arabic-first experience, privacy-conscious users, developers, researchers, and anyone who would rather own their data than hand it to a company. Download Maskan and take back control of your AI chat.

What's new

A fix release. - The model on your phone would not start in the Play and F-Droid builds — it now loads and answers. A model you already downloaded keeps working; there is nothing to download again. - The translation styles answered instead of translating. All six now translate what you send, and a question is translated rather than answered. On the small on-device model, translating questions and Thai is still unreliable. Cloud models translate both correctly.
