ZYTO Technologies Recalls ZYTO Tower and Software for Regulatory Violations

ZYTO Technologies is voluntarily recalling ZYTO Tower devices and software because their marketing claims exceeded the scope of their FDA 510(k) clearance.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II and is driven by regulatory non-compliance (claims exceeding clearance) rather than a physical safety defect or reported injuries, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity voluntary recall.
