VollaOS operating system

VollaOS is a privacy-focused mobile operating system based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) but stripped of Google Play Services and trackers to ensure user data sovereignty. It originates from Germany, developed by the startup Hallo Welt Systeme UG, which focuses on providing an alternative to mainstream mobile ecosystems.

Manufacturing of the hardware that runs VollaOS is primarily based in Germany, where the company collaborates with partners like Gigaset to ensure local production and assembly. Ownership remains independent within Germany, as the company was founded through successful crowdfunding campaigns and private investment to maintain its mission of digital freedom and simplicity.
