Best for—
  • Privacy-conscious creators
  • Apple Silicon users
  • Stable Diffusion learners
Pros
  • Node graph exposes the full pipeline for precise, repeatable control over generation
  • Workflows can be saved, shared, and reproduced exactly
  • Huge custom-node ecosystem adds ControlNet, video, and support for new models quickly
  • Supports modern architectures like Flux alongside Stable Diffusion
  • Runs entirely locally on your own GPU and is open source under GPL-3.0
  • Completely free core app
  • Runs fully on-device and offline for privacy
  • Deep Apple Silicon optimization for speed
  • Supports Stable Diffusion, SDXL, FLUX, ControlNet and LoRAs
  • Available across iPhone, iPad, Mac and Vision Pro
Cons
  • Steep learning curve; the node-based approach is intimidating for newcomers
  • Realistically needs a capable GPU with ample VRAM for good speed and larger models
  • You manage model downloads and storage yourself, which can consume lots of disk space
  • Third-party custom nodes vary in quality and can introduce breakage or security risk
  • Apple ecosystem only, no Windows or Android
  • Performance depends on your device's chip and RAM
  • Steeper learning curve than consumer generators
  • No team or collaboration features
  • Advanced local models need large downloads
