What is Vortex App?

Your devices, one flow. A seamless ecosystem for Linux and Android.

Vortex gives your Linux and Android devices the seamless one-ecosystem feel — notifications, clipboard, calls, audio and files flowing between them as if they were one device:

  • Open — any Android + any Linux
  • Offline-first — no cloud, works with no internet at all
  • Hardware-agnostic — no premium gear required (budget BT earbuds work)
  • Privacy-first — everything end-to-end encrypted, stored locally

Features:

  • Notification mirror — bidirectional phone?laptop: dismiss-sync, action buttons, inline reply from the laptop
  • Universal clipboard — text + images sync, with history (Super+V)
  • Smart audio handoff — earbuds follow your music between devices; jump to the phone on a call and come back after
  • Phone companion — call banner (accept/decline), SMS, contacts, recent calls, dialing from the laptop
  • Browsing handoff — continue the page you're reading on the phone with one click on the laptop
  • Proximity lock — laptop locks when you walk away with the phone, unlocks when you're back
  • Notes + To-dos — one list on both devices, with due-date reminders
  • File sharing — instant drop-style, Nautilus/Dolphin integration, Wi-Fi Direct fast path
  • Emoji-SAS pairing — easy AND secure: compare 3 emoji, done
  • Experimental: screen mirroring (both directions) and continuity camera (phone ? Linux webcam)
