“Memory it needs” is the computer’s memory, or the graphics card’s own memory when the model runs there. A model that doesn’t fit runs slowly or not at all; Quo checks your device and suggests one that runs well.

On an Android phone
- Install Quo from Google Play.
- Open Settings → Models and choose Ministral 3B.
