# Help & In-App Docs

This same user documentation ships **inside the app**, so you can read it offline without leaving Meshtastic. Open it from **Settings → Help & Documentation**.

## Browsing

The docs browser lists every user-guide page. Tap a page to read it; images and cross-links work just like they do here.

### Search

Tap the search icon and type to filter pages by title and keywords — results update as you type.

## Chirpy — the AI Assistant

**Chirpy** answers plain-language questions about Meshtastic using this bundled documentation as its source. Tap the Chirpy button in the docs browser, type a question, and it replies with an answer and links to the relevant pages.

> 🔒 **Privacy:** On supported Google-flavor devices, Chirpy runs **on-device** using Gemini Nano — your questions never leave your phone. A small model downloads on first use.

> ⚠️ **Note:** On F-Droid, Desktop, and iOS builds, Chirpy falls back to a **keyword search** over the documentation rather than a generative model. If your device doesn't support on-device AI, the assistant is hidden and you can still browse and search the docs normally.
