Crypton BYOD helps teams turn Android phones into reliable SMS gateways, provisioned once, managed from a clear web dashboard, built for real operations. Until now, that experience lived on crypton.sh.

We've been building in public for a while now. Private phone numbers, encrypted messaging, Travel eSIMs for over 190 countries. Today we're adding something different, something more permanent, and closing the chapter on two betas at once.

We’ve been hardening how your encryption passphrase protects your messages, contacts, and other sensitive data. Most of you won’t need to do anything right away. This post explains what changed, who it affects, and what to do if you use account recovery or the API.

We’re excited to ship Crypton for Android, a native app built for those who already rely on Crypton on the web and want the same privacy and control on their phone.

We're launching two new ways to connect your own Android phone to Crypton — the Partner Program and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Both are powered by our free Companion App, but they serve very different purposes. Whether you want to earn crypto with your spare SIM cards or manage your own private SMS through Crypton, there's now an option for you.

Most people juggle at least three or four apps just to stay secure online. A messaging app here, an email client there, a standalone authenticator somewhere else. We've been thinking about that for a while, and it always felt like something we could simplify.
