Help and support

Sara: a self-hosted AI companion that is also a capable assistant.

Getting started

1. Install Sara on a computer or server you control (see the install guide that comes with Sara).
2. Open it in a browser and sign in with the owner token it gives you.
3. On your phone, install the app, then on your computer open Settings → Devices and sign-in → Add a phone or computer and scan the code.

No server yet? Open the app and press Try the demo.

Common questions

The app says it can't reach my server. Check that the server is running and that the address is right (for example sara.example.com or 192.168.1.20:7860). On a home network, the phone needs to be on the same network or connected through a VPN such as Tailscale.

No notifications on iPhone. Your server needs an Apple push key once: Settings → Connections → Phone and notifications → iPhone app notifications.

Notifications on Android are late. Turn on Instant notifications in Settings → Phone and notifications.

Is my data private? Yes: it stays on your server. See the privacy policy.

Contact

For a reply that was wrong or harmful, use ⚑ Report on it in the app. For anything else, email the developer at the contact address shown on Sara's App Store or Google Play page.
