## What is Cipheus?

Is this two aliens talking? 

It might be. Or it might be your group chat in Cipheus.

—

Cipheus turns every text you send into ancient runes, celestial 
symbols, or geometric glyphs. Your friends with the same Language 
Pack see the real message. Anyone glancing at your phone sees... 
something they can't read.

It's not magic. It's not really alien. But it kind of looks like both.

—

WHAT IT'S FOR

- Group chats your parents/siblings/coworkers shouldn't read
- Aesthetic texting (your messages look cool now)
- A private second layer for conversations that matter
- Just for the vibes, honestly

HOW IT WORKS

Pick a Language Pack — Nordic Runes, Celestial, Geometric, and 
more. Share it with one friend or a whole group. Every message 
you send turns into symbols. Long-press to see what's underneath.

It's encrypted end-to-end. Even I (the dev) can't read your 
messages. That's the point.

FROM THE DEV

Hi, I'm Flood. I built Cipheus solo because I wanted texting to 
feel like a secret again. The kind of secret you and your best 
friend share in a language no one else speaks.

I'm still adding Language Packs, fixing rough edges, and listening 
to everyone using it. Send feedback. I read everything.
