Before you start

  • An iPhone or iPad with iOS or iPadOS 16.4 or later. On Android, the minimum version is not listed here: check the app's Google Play page.
  • Minimum age: 13. A minor needs permission from a parent or guardian to create an account.

Vibe is the new name of Mistral AI’s assistant, Le Chat. You can install it on iPhone, iPad or Android in a few minutes. The steps below will guide you from the download to your first conversation.

Check your device and your age

Before you install the app, check that your device is compatible. On iPhone or iPad, you need iOS or iPadOS 16.4 or a later version. On Android, check the minimum version listed on the Google Play page.

Also check your age. The app is for people aged 13 and older. If you are under 18, ask your parents or guardian for permission before you create an account.

The name has changed. In app stores, the app is called “Vibe by Mistral (formerly Le Chat).” If you still see “Le Chat by Mistral AI” on the Mistral website, it is the same product.

Open your phone’s app store

On iPhone or iPad, open the App Store. On Android, open Google Play.

These are the official app stores for your phone. Use them to avoid unofficial copies.

Find and install the app

In the store, use the search bar. Type “Vibe Mistral” or “Le Chat Mistral.”

Check that the publisher is Mistral AI. Then start the download with the store’s install button. The app is free, with in-app purchases.

Once the download is finished, the Vibe icon appears on your home screen.

Open the app and sign in

Tap the Vibe icon to open it. Sign in with the same account you use on the Mistral website. If you do not have an account yet, follow the account creation screens.

If the app appears in English, check your phone’s language settings. French is one of the available languages.

Paid subscriptions are managed in the App Store or in Google Play, depending on the store where you subscribed. The free plan has limits, for example on the number of messages and web searches. For prices and plans, check the official page: mistral.ai/pricing.

And now?

Try asking a simple question to see how the app responds. For example:

  • “Explain in simple terms what artificial intelligence is.”
  • “Help me write a short message to confirm an appointment tomorrow at 2:00 p.m.”
