My RTX 4070 Ti Super already runs several capable models like Qwen3.6-35B-A3B and Gemma 4 26B A4B, but models of that size are always stuck on my desktop. The 4-bit version of Gemma 4 26B comes to about 14.4GB just for the weights alone, and needless to say, my iPhone does not have that kind of memory. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to discover that there was a virtually frictionless way to access the capability of those large models on my phone, and LM Studio's free iPhone app makes it easy and free to do so by linking my phone to the model on my PC.
