It's tough to find just the right mix of privacy and productivity on a smartphone today. Apostrophy has arguably come the closest to bringing compatibility and security together with their partitioned approach, dividing their OS into a secure "Domus" and an unrestricted "Piazza."
Punkt MC02 lets you run Android apps in a privacy-focused sandbox without Google services, giving you choice and control over your data.
When it comes to mobile operating systems Android and iOS dominate. And anyone else who tried (BlackBerry, Palm, even Windows) never captured enough of the market to stay viable. So what makes Apostrophy do it in 2024? After two weeks of testing, there's some promise in this new OS.
AphyOS is a privacy-focused, subscription-based mobile operating system developed by Swiss startup Apostrophy AG, offering an alternative to dominant tech giants like Apple and Google in the mobile OS landscape.
The Punkt MC02, a smartphone known for its minimalist design and privacy-focused features, is available for pre-order as of November 2023, with expected shipping in early January 2024, offering an alternative to the noise and distractions of traditional smartphones.
Powered by the new Aphy OS and set to launch later this year, the upcoming phone from Punkt. is poised to carve out its niche in the mobile market.
How much of your data do you really want Google to have?
You don't have to hand all of your data over to Google and Microsoft in exchange for basic services like email and calendaring. There's a better option, one that gives you control over your data and privacy: Apostrophy Services!
CES is back, baby! The show's changed a lot over the years, but there was still a lot of exciting new tech to be found in Las Vegas — enough that we wanted to take a moment to acknowledge all the cool stuff with our own Best of CES 2023 awards!
I met with representatives of Apostrophy at CES and received a first look at AphyOS — a new privacy-focused, subscription-based mobile OS that is expected launch later this year.
