Summary

Survival LLM is a free, MIT-licensed app that runs an open-weight language model and an offline library of about 1.5 million articles on a Mac or Windows PC. It answers emergency and first-aid questions without internet and shows the passages it used. Developer Ronny Fernandez released it on 24 October 2026 and shipped versions 0.3.0 to 0.3.4 on 26 and 27 October. His own tests found the smallest model gave harmful answers, so it is not offered.
