Connection presets let you save a complete server configuration — provider type, server address, port, and credentials — under a friendly name and switch between setups in a single tap. If you connect to a home LM Studio server during the evening and an OpenRouter key during travel, presets eliminate the need to re-enter details every time you change environments.

What a preset stores

Each preset captures everything LMSA needs to connect to a specific backend:
FieldDetails
Provider typeLocal Server (LM Studio or Ollama), OpenRouter, or Custom Endpoint
Server IP & portFor local server presets
API keyFor OpenRouter or custom endpoint presets
LM Studio API tokenOptional authentication token for local servers

Save a new preset

1

Configure your connection

Open Settings (the gear icon) and go to Step 1 — Connection. Choose your provider type and fill in your server address, port, or API key as normal.
2

Open the Saved Presets section

Scroll down within the Connection step to the Saved Presets card and tap the expand arrow to open it.
3

Enter a preset name

Type a name in the Preset Name field. The name is required — the Save button stays disabled until you provide one.
4

Tap Save Current

Tap the Save Current button. The preset appears immediately in your presets list, sorted by most recently updated.
Use descriptive names that include the location and provider, such as “Home LM Studio”, “Work Ollama”, or “OpenRouter Cloud”. Preset names are limited to 50 characters.

Switch to a saved preset

1

Open the Saved Presets section

In Settings → Connection, expand the Saved Presets card.
2

Tap a preset

Tap any preset in the list to load its stored connection details into the active configuration.
3

Confirm

Tap Confirm (or close Settings). LMSA immediately connects using the selected preset.

Update an existing preset

If your server IP changes or you rotate an API key, you can overwrite a saved preset rather than creating a duplicate.
1

Update your connection settings

Enter the new server address or credentials in the Connection step as usual.
2

Select the existing preset to edit

In the Saved Presets list, tap the edit icon on the preset you want to update.
3

Save the changes

Confirm the update in the edit modal. The preset’s Updated timestamp refreshes and it moves to the top of the list.

Delete a preset

Tap the delete icon on any preset in the list and confirm removal. Deleting a preset does not change your current active connection.

Common use cases

Save your home LM Studio IP under “Home LM Studio” and your office Ollama instance under “Work Ollama”. Switch between them in seconds when you move between networks.
Keep a “Local Server” preset for when your PC is running and an “OpenRouter Cloud” preset for when you’re away from home and want cloud model access.
If you manage separate OpenRouter API keys for personal and professional use, store each as its own preset.
Preset data is stored on-device only. Presets are not synced to any cloud service and are not included in LMSA’s chat history export.
