Russet 1.2 expands offline on-device AI with games, health data and automations Russet, the offline AI app built to run on Apple Intelligence on iPhone, iPad and Mac, has added several notable features while keeping its core promise: all processing stays local to the device. The 1.2 update brings playable mini‑games, access to on‑device health data, and new automation capabilities — useful additions for users who want AI helpers without cloud upload.

The changes also underline the growing capability of on‑device AI powered by Apple Intelligence. What’s new…
