Typhos is a cross-platform messaging app that focuses on privacy and security from the ground up. Typhos sends encrypted text, image, audio, and video messages to individuals and groups. It can also be used for encrypted user-to-user and group phone calls between Typhos mobile users. Our patented encryption technology ensures that messages are securely going where they are intended, and our privacy pledge ensures that no one is harvesting your information along the way. - Secure Chat ensures a secure text-messaging user experience. Typhos uses advanced encryption methods to ensure your messages are never received by anyone other than those for whom they are intended. End-to-End Encryption with our seamless encryption process ensures that messages stay protected from start to finish. - Self-Destructing Messages allow users to send messages that automatically delete themselves. This ensures messages are fully erased from all chats when the self-destruct countdown sequence completes. - Complete Encryption by default allows all chats, video, and voice calls to be safe, secure, and private all the time. Only the senders and recipients can view messages/calls. - Avatar and PIN ensure you are completely anonymous. We do not ask you for your name, or mobile number, and we have simplified the login process by not asking for a complicated password. Typhos uses a random User Unique Code (UUC), so you never have to worry about your information being compromised or attached to your phone number.

The Fun is amazing. The security is only lower than our premium product. An enclosed, anonymous endpoint, cryptologic, super-computer denial encryption to give you security and ease of mind, in a world always in your business. Use responsibly. Never met anyone without a friend knowing all the details. But have an anonymous 'agent' number to use for contact, without going through your Telcom company system, until you are ready to give out your 'actual' phone number. It's worth the money for the control of the situation.
