Free on every plan
Your Android sign-in codes, ready to paste on your Mac
When a one-time code arrives by text, Crosslink puts it on your Mac’s clipboard and shows it in a banner. Paste it and carry on, without reaching for your phone.
How it works
- 1
A code arrives
Your bank, a shop or an app texts a one-time code to your Android phone.
- 2
Your phone finds it
Crosslink spots the code on the phone, so only the code and the sender leave it, end-to-end encrypted.
- 3
Paste on your Mac
Moments later it’s on your Mac’s clipboard, with a banner showing the code and who sent it.
What you get
Copied for you
No retyping and no squinting at your phone. Press ⌘V and you’re done.
Cleared after use
The code leaves your clipboard after a short time, unless you’ve copied something else since.
Kept out of history
Codes are marked private on your Mac, so they stay out of your clipboard history and clipboard managers.
Your rules
Turn off auto-copy to just see the code in a banner, or block senders you don’t want codes from.
Good to know
- Codes from text messages only. Codes from WhatsApp and other apps arrive as notifications, and Android 15 hides codes inside other apps’ notifications.
- Codes sent as RCS chat messages don’t come through. Most services still send codes as plain SMS.
- Crosslink needs permission to read your texts. Because you install it directly, Android first asks you to allow restricted settings for it, once.
Private by design
- End-to-end encryptedOnly your own devices hold the keys, so not even we can read what you send.
- Pairing, not passwordsA stolen password isn’t enough. Every new device needs a scan or your approval.
- Every switch is yoursEach feature has its own switch, and the sensitive ones only turn on from your phone.
Questions
Can Crosslink read my other text messages?
For codes, no. Your phone finds the code itself, and only the code, the sender and the time go to your Mac, end-to-end encrypted. Seeing all your texts on your Mac is a separate Pro feature with its own switch.
Can other apps on my Mac see the code?
Any app on your Mac can read the clipboard while the code is on it, which is why Crosslink clears it soon after. If you’d rather paste by hand, turn off auto-copy and the code only shows in the banner.
Is OTP auto-copy free?
Yes. Codes are free on every plan.
