Encrypted Android keyboard for private messages
4 followers
VeilType is an encrypted Android keyboard that lets you protect text, voice, video, photos, and files before sending them through any messenger. Instead of trusting every chat app with your private content, VeilType encrypts it directly from the keyboard. You can create encrypted messages and media capsules, send them through Telegram or other apps, and decrypt them only with the right key. Built for people who need simple private communication without changing their entire workflow.
VeilType is live on Product Hunt today.
It is an Android keyboard that encrypts messages before they leave the chat app, so people can keep using Telegram, WhatsApp, SMS, email, or any app they already use.
I’d really value feedback on one thing: is the keyboard-layer privacy idea clear enough in the first few seconds?

One question I would really like feedback on:
Would you trust privacy at the keyboard layer if the encryption happens locally before the message reaches Telegram, WhatsApp, SMS, or email?
Or does this still need to be explained through very concrete examples like:
- private text
- voice capsule
- photo capsule
- file capsule
I am trying to understand which explanation is clearer for normal users, not only security people.
One thing I am learning from today’s feedback:
“keyboard privacy” is not the clearest phrase.
A better way to explain VeilType may be:
encrypt the message before sending it through any app.
The keyboard is only where the workflow starts because it works across Telegram, WhatsApp, SMS, email, and other apps.
The real question is trust:
what would make this feel credible enough for normal Android users — a clearer threat model, open-source core, reproducible builds, or more concrete demos?
