Security and Privacy:
How Remote Access Stays Safe

Only you can send commands

Remote tasks only execute when they come from an account-linked messaging platform. No one else can send instructions to your Owlfy.

Files travel device-to-device

When you retrieve a file, it travels directly from your desktop to your phone using end-to-end encryption. It does not pass through any Owlfy server.

Same permission rules apply

Remote tasks respect your Owlfy sandbox settings. High-risk actions always require explicit confirmation.

Activity Log

Every remote command is logged locally on your device — task description, time, and result — so you always know what ran.

Non-desk workers

Sales agents, field staff — access files and run tasks from your phone while on the move.

Remote workers

Access your office desktop from home without VPN complexity or calling IT.

Frequent travelers

Your desktop at home or the office is always accessible. Need a document in a meeting? One message and it's there.

Everyone else

Left your laptop at home? Forgot to lock your screen? Remote control handles all of it.
