Android + OpenCL implementation β€” runs on-device on non-flagship phones (Adreno 6xx)

Hi! I wanted to share an Android + OpenCL implementation of Moonshine-tiny, in case anyone wants to run it on a phone:

  • Try it: Edgi on Google Play β€” runs fully on-device, no cloud.
  • Open source: the app is built on top of the open-source adreno-llms inference engine β€” https://github.com/a8nova/adreno-llms β€” pure C++/OpenCL with hand-written kernels tuned for Adreno, taking the raw 16 kHz waveform in directly (no mel stage).

It's tuned and tested on Adreno 6xx GPUs β€” the GPU class in mid-range and older Android phones (verified on a 2020 Motorola Razr / Adreno 620) β€” and should run on most arm64 Android phones with OpenCL, though the optimizations are Adreno-specific. On the Adreno 620 it transcribes at RTF ~0.3 one-shot (including TTFT), token-exact vs the PyTorch reference on the verification clips.

Hope it's useful β€” happy to answer questions!
