FAQ
Short, direct answers about denkr.
These answers are based on the canonical product docs and current launch notes updated on April 5-6, 2026.
Local-first
Core context lives on the phone, with provider calls staying explicit.
Controlled tools
Skills, web tools, and MCP stay gated instead of flooding every turn.
What is denkr?
denkr is a single-user, single-assistant mobile app where the assistant is the product. It keeps chat, memory, notebooks, reminders, and tools inside one continuous relationship instead of splitting them into separate mini apps.
How is denkr different from a generic AI wrapper?
denkr owns the assistant identity, local context, memory, sessions, summaries, retrieval, and tool orchestration. Model providers sit behind an app-owned runtime, so switching providers should not break the assistant relationship.
Where is my data stored?
Core app data such as conversations, memory, notebooks, reminders, and audit state is designed to live locally on your phone. When you send a prompt or image, that request still goes to the AI provider you connected, under that provider flow and policy.
What is the difference between memory, notebooks, and reminders?
Memory stores durable facts and preferences for retrieval. Notebooks store visible markdown pages for people, projects, and plans. Reminders create future prompts and notifications with inspectable schedules and delivery rules.
Which model providers does denkr support?
The current provider platform supports Gemini, OpenAI, OpenRouter, and Anthropic through provider accounts, with OpenAI Subscription marked experimental. The runtime stays app-owned even when you change the active provider or model.
What are skills in denkr?
Skills are focused workflows the assistant can load during a conversation. Core skills ship with the app, optional skills come from one curated catalog, and skills do not bypass denkr’s normal permission and confirmation rules.
Can denkr search the web or read links?
Yes, but those tools are explicit and app-owned. Fresh web search can be enabled in Settings and is currently Gemini-backed, while direct URL reading is provider-independent and lets denkr fetch readable page content from a link you send.
Does denkr support MCP connectors?
Yes, in beta. You can manually add remote HTTPS MCP connectors, test them before saving, inspect their discovered tools, and activate only the subset needed for the current session instead of exposing everything by default.
Can denkr take actions without asking me first?
Internal local reads can happen immediately, local writes stay auditable inside the app, and external side effects are meant to require clear user confirmation. The product docs treat explicit action control as a core contract.
Is denkr available now?
Not publicly yet. Android is in closed testing with early access planned for Q3 2026, and iOS support is planned after the Android launch.
