This device must be paired. Unknown devices are denied.
A Home Screen app is a separate device from Safari. Pair it once, then Orion remembers it.
Voice route: Device synthesis
Private road chat
Enter the passphrase each session. Private turns are answered by the local model on your Mac and are never sent to OpenAI or Anthropic. If the Mac is offline they stay encrypted here until it returns.
Uses this device's location for primary weather. Nebraska corridor cities stay additional alert points.
Active severe weather only. All-clear spam is suppressed.
Chat agent
Road model
Auto mirrors Home. Override it only when the Mac is offline.
OpenAI and Anthropic provide the answer; Orion's voice layer reads it aloud. The speaker button in Chat mutes or unmutes all models.

iOS does not let any web app use the Siri voice. For the best on-device sound, download an Enhanced or Premium voice under Settings › Accessibility › Spoken Content › Voices, then pick it here.
Used when a cloud voice session is approved. These sound far more human than any on-device voice.
Device location
Uses this iPhone's location when available for weather, precip, and severe alerts. The Mac Fort Calhoun point is never used for mobile sessions.
Cloud voice
Typed cloud chat asks each time by default. Opt in to session approval for uninterrupted voice transcription, cloud replies, and cloud speech. Private/vault stays excluded.
Per-request approval (default).
Face ID
Enable Face ID for password-free sign-in on this paired device. The private lane still requires its separate passphrase.
