| Version | For |
|---|---|
| Main | Stock Android (Pixel, Samsung, etc.) |
| Custom ROM | GrapheneOS, LineageOS, CalyxOS — no Google services |
The in-app updater is also available in Settings
Maincustom-rom-supportNote: As of v2.0.0, the in-app App version matches the Box release version (2.0.0) — the earlier mismatch with the upstream Google AI Edge Gallery build number (which showed 1.0.15) is fixed (#67). Box releases are tracked via GitHub tags. Use Settings → Check for updates to see if a newer Box release is available.
Box is a security-hardened, feature rich fork of Google AI Edge Gallery — with on-device image generation (Bonsai Image 4B, FLUX.2 klein & Z-Image Turbo diffusion), Box Assist (spoken camera assistance for blind and low-vision users), AI image upscaling, face recognition, photo erase/inpainting, music & sound generation, voice mode (speech-to-speech AI chat), voice input, multilingual text-to-speech, document analysis and Q&A, vision AI, full GPU and Snapdragon/Tensor/MediaTek NPU acceleration, a hardened security posture (biometric lock, encrypted chat history, tap-jacking protection), llama.cpp support, and GGUF model import — and more

Disclaimer
Box began as a fork of Google AI Edge Gallery and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google LLC. Google branding has been replaced throughout. Box has since diverged substantially from upstream — active merging with upstream stopped some time ago, and upstream has itself since adopted features that originated in Box. Box now carries roughly 50+ features not present in upstream Google AI Edge Gallery. Credit for the original underlying platform goes to Google and the original contributors.
| Version | Feature | Details |
|---|---|---|
| v3.5.5 | Removed several crashing models | A batch of newer LiteRT models were failing to load or crashing outright, mostly reported on lower RAM devices like the Pixel 6a. They need a newer LiteRT runtime than Box currently ships. Removed: Granite-4.0-H-1B, InternVL3-2B, InternVL3_5-2B, Jan-nano, MiniCPM5-1B (int4), Nanbeige4.2-3B, OLMo-2-1B-Instruct, Phi-4-mini-instruct, Phi-4-mini-reasoning, SmolLM3-3B, SmolVLM2-2.2B, SmolVLM2-500M, and both Ministral-3-3B models. |
| v3.5.5 | Kokoro TTS download fixed | The Hugging Face repo Kokoro downloaded from was wiped upstream, so downloads landed on an error page instead of the model. Repointed to the model's new home; existing installs redownload cleanly. |
| v3.5.5 | Gemini Nano hub updated | The 256-token reply cap is lifted, up to 4096 tokens depending on device. Added Pixel 11 (Nano v4) support and a much longer list of supported phones. Updated the About text in the hub, which was out of date. |
| v3.4.5 | Google Firebase removed | Firebase Analytics and Firebase Cloud Messaging came in with the original Google AI Edge Gallery fork and were never used by Box. There was no configuration file for them, so they could not start up, collect anything or send anything — and analytics was switched off in the manifest on top of that. They are now gone from the app entirely rather than merely disabled, along with 20 dormant tracking calls and six Google entries in the app manifest. Nothing you can see or do in Box changes. |
| v3.4.5 | Google usage logging switched off | Removing Firebase surfaced a second piece of Google code: Clearcut, a usage-logging transport that arrives inside ML Kit (used for background removal, face detection and reading text from images), so it did not leave with Firebase. It sends over an ordinary HTTPS connection rather than through Google Play services — meaning a de-Googled phone does not stop it — and ML Kit provides no setting to turn it off. Box now disables it at the source: with nothing registered to receive them, events are discarded before they are even written down. The ML Kit features themselves are unaffected. |
| v3.3.5 | Pixel 11 / Tensor G6 acceleration | Two models rebuilt for the Tensor G6 in the Pixel 11 — Gemma-4-E2B-it (Tensor G6) (3.3 GB, 32K context, text/image/audio) and Gemma 3 1B-IT (Tensor G6) (2.0 GB, text only). Both run on the phone's dedicated AI hardware rather than the GPU, and are substantially faster there than the standard build. They appear automatically on a Pixel 11 and are hidden everywhere else. The Pixel 10 / Tensor G5 path is unchanged. |
| v3.3.5 | Themes for colour blindness | Three new Ptyxis+ palettes — Deuteranopia, Protanopia and Tritanopia, one per common type of colour blindness. Each palette's colours are drawn from the standard published colour-blind-safe sets (Okabe–Ito, Paul Tol, IBM) and were chosen by simulating that specific condition and maximising the separation between the palette's worst-matched pair, so no two colours collapse into one. An ordinary theme put through the same check usually has at least one indistinguishable pair — blue and cyan being the classic. Plus Seafoam Pastel, a new regular palette, bringing Ptyxis+ to 42. |
| v3.3.5 | New font — Alice | A warm, readable serif, selectable under Settings → Font. Egyptian Hieroglyphs has been removed; if you had it selected Box falls back to the default font on its own. |
