Fully Functional Micro-Computer
A complete and independent computer system engineered into the smallest possible form factor.
Independent computer packed at thumb-size
Processor, memory, storage, secure module — all built inside. This isn't an accessory. It's a standalone micro-computer you can plug into any device.
Optimized Power Management
Smart power balancing ensures smooth performance while minimizing load on your phone or tablet.
Plug-and-play everywhere
Works instantly on Android, iOS, Linux, Windows, and macOS without drivers or setup. Wherever you plug it in, you get a clean, isolated OS in seconds.
Optional GMS support Compatible with a wide range of Android apps
Runs mainstream Android apps while maintaining strong isolation and security. You no longer need to choose between "secure" and "usable."
Hardware Vault Physical Isolation for Your Data
A system built from the silicon upward, established through physical isolation and hardware-backed encryption
Secure Enclave on Chip ：Your sensitive data never touches the system
Payment credentials and encryption keys are locked inside a dedicated hardware zone that meets CC EAL4+ security standards. Some models include an independent CC EAL6+ secure element, offering the same physical protection level as hardware crypto wallets. Even if your phone or computer is compromised, malware still can't break into this hardware vault.
Full-disk encryption If the device is lost, your data isn't
All data stored in PlugOS is encrypted at rest inside the secure hardware. Damage, loss, or physical teardown — none of it can expose or recover your data.
Pre-boot authentication No one but you can unlock the device
When plugged in, PlugOS verifies both the host device (phone or computer) and your unlock credential. If either fails, it simply won't power on or start the system.
Verified Boot Built to resist firmware-level attacks
Every startup begins with a strict integrity check. Any unauthorized change (e.g., firmware injection, low-level malware) gets instantly blocked.
Active Data Self-Destruct Critical secrets stay unrecoverable
Under brute-force attempts or duress-type inputs, PlugOS can trigger an irreversible secure-erase sequence to protect your sensitive information.
Privacy, Re-Engineered Your Data Stays Yours
PlugOS changes how data moves and where it lives, so control stays in your hands—not in the cloud.
Local-only data processing
Your typing, browsing, photos, and files stay inside PlugOS on its own hardware. No forced cloud sync. No copy to the host phone. No hidden background channels.
System apps with zero tracking
Core apps (keyboard, gallery, browser) are rebuilt for privacy from the ground up. No analytics. No ad trackers. No hidden data collection. Privacy isn't a setting here—it's the default.
Virtual sensors & anti-fingerprinting
A virtual sensor layer can blur or block GPS, camera, and SIM identity. Apps only see a controlled "virtual profile," making fingerprinting and device-based tracking much harder.
System firewall every connection under your control
A built-in firewall shows exactly which apps are trying to go online. You see every connection—and can cut off anything you don't trust.

Common Questions
Simply put, PlugOS is an "independent secure smart system" that fits in your pocket. Imagine having a device smaller than a USB drive, containing a highly secure, fully functional Android system. Insert it into your phone (Android or iPhone), tablet, or computer,and you'll instantly have a completely independent digital space that belongs only to you and is completely isolated from the main device!
- Run a complete Android system smoothly on iPhone, easily play with apps and games from both ecosystems, goodbye to choice dysentery!
- Achieve "true dual app" functionality, completely separate work WeChat and personal WeChat, game alt accounts and main accounts don't interfere with each other, and it's hardware-level isolation, goodbye to the lag and instability of software clones.
- Have an "invisible" private space to store your private photos, important files, and digital wallets. Even if your phone is lost, this data remains safe.
- Have a dedicated "mobile workstation" anytime, anywhere, safely handle confidential work on any unfamiliar computer, pull out and go, leaving no trace.
PlugOS's goal is to let you enjoy unprecedented peace of mind and freedom while enjoying the convenience and fun of smart life!
Not complicated at all! PlugOS runs in an ultra-portable smart security device that connects to your phone, tablet, or computer via USB-C interface. A lightweight client APP will be installed on the host.
The entire process is like this:
- Connect and start: Insert the PlugOS device into your Android phone, iPhone 15, iPad, Linux computer, or Windows computer.
- Client management: Your device only needs to install one client APP. Through this client APP, you can easily manage the PlugOS device. It will present you with a virtual desktop and let you reuse the host device's peripherals (like keyboard, screen).
- Independent operation: PlugOS runs independently inside the device, doesn't occupy the host device's storage and computing resources, and data is completely encrypted and processed inside the PlugOS device. Unplug it, and PlugOS "disappears", leaving no trace on the host.
It's that simple, plug in and use, unplug and leave no trace!
PlugOS is a complete operating system based on independent hardware, not "simulating an isolated space" in the existing system. This means PlugOS: has its own desktop, apps, file system, permission control; runs independently from the host system, no interference, no access; security level far exceeds ordinary apps or software clone solutions.
PlugOS's core advantages lie in its "high portability, true isolation, no compromise":
- Lightweight and portable, goodbye to bulkiness: Secure phones are usually bulky, expensive, and can only be used alone. PlugOS is smaller than a USB drive, easily fits in your pocket, one device, multiple hosts universal.
- Hardware-level true isolation: Most privacy apps or phone system's built-in clone functions are software-level isolation, still at risk of being breached. PlugOS uses an independent hardware system, completely isolated from the host, data doesn't communicate, security level is completely different.
- No sacrifice of experience: Traditional security systems often mean limited functionality and compromised user experience. PlugOS not only provides ultimate security but also perfectly compatible with mainstream Android app ecosystem (including GMS services), letting you enjoy all your favorite apps and games in a secure environment.
PlugOS provides you with a brand new, more flexible, more thorough digital security and privacy solution.
Don't worry at all! PlugOS adopts the highest level of security measures. Even if the device is lost, your data is absolutely safe and won't be leaked.
We have at least the following guarantees:
- Two-factor authentication and full-disk encryption: All data in the PlugOS device is highly encrypted and defended against software and physical attacks through hardware isolation environment. Without the correct key and authentication, anyone (including us) cannot access or restore data in the device.
- Forced self-destruct mechanism: PlugOS also has violent crack self-destruct and coercion password self-destruct functions. When encountering violent cracking or coercion, it can automatically clear data in the device, preventing information from falling into others' hands.
