In-App Chat and Conversations
The in-app chat is Aori’s built-in way to have conversations. Unlike channels (Telegram, WhatsApp), in-app conversations never leave the app — all data stays local on your device.
Multiple Conversations
Section titled “Multiple Conversations”You can have as many open conversations as you want. Each conversation is independent — Aori does not carry context from one conversation into another unless you ask it to.
Conversations appear in the sidebar (desktop) or the chat list (mobile). Tap or click a conversation to open it, or start a new one.
Conversation Actions
Section titled “Conversation Actions”From the conversation list or the three-dot menu inside a chat, you can:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| New conversation | Start a fresh thread with no previous context |
| Rename | Give the conversation a meaningful name |
| Archive | Hide it from the main list without deleting it |
| Fork | Create a copy of the conversation at its current state, so you can explore a different direction |
| Delete | Permanently remove the conversation and its messages |
Personas in In-App Chat
Section titled “Personas in In-App Chat”Each conversation thread maintains its own active Persona. Type /<handle> at any point to switch Personas mid-conversation. The switch applies to all subsequent messages in that thread. See Personas for details.
Data and Privacy
Section titled “Data and Privacy”In-app conversations are stored only on your device — Aori has no cloud backend for app data. If you connect a cloud AI provider, your messages are sent to that provider to generate a response — see Privacy and Data Flow for details.
Conversation search is planned for a future release.
