Comments on Proton Mail: Encrypted Email for Android

★★★★★ Xylogor the Alien Overlord · Oct 25, 2026
Everyone should have a ProtonMail account. If you are reading this, this is your sign to sign up. They don't charge you a dime, your emails are encrypted and secure, they're Swiss, so they get to provide quite a few security perks that other providers don't have access to. Check out their YouTube video wherein they explain it out; it's a lot for a review. But you should have a ProtonMail email account for the security and lack of advertising alone!
★★★★★ Arun Pratap Singh · Oct 19, 2026
​Proton Mail is an absolute masterpiece and easily the best email app, far outperforming Gmail, Outlook, and Yahoo with its unmatched privacy and security focus. The end-to-end encryption and clean interface are truly top-notch. However, the only major negative side is that its monthly and yearly subscription plans are quite expensive for regular users. Please introduce more affordable pricing or budget-friendly tiers. Highly recommended for everyone valuing data privacy!
★☆☆☆☆ Matthew Aves · Oct 18, 2026
I highly recommend you avoid Proton Mail. Their customer service is beyond disgusting. They are constantly blocking accounts, and their storage limit is very low. All they want is money for their garbage services. Don't trust or fall for their "secure services". Proton is just a bunch of greedy clowns. I'll be sticking to Google, Proton, thanks for nothing.
★☆☆☆☆ Jonas A · Nov 2, 2026
Their CEO apparently wants proton to use more AI for speed and less of "lovingly handcrafting code". 🤡
★☆☆☆☆ Nigrao Burnell · Oct 13, 2026
If you actually want to write emails with some heft I'd recommend you stay away from this privacy-nut riddled provider. The app will crash mid-email, and you'll lose the draft.

🔒 Secure email with encryption
Everything in your inbox is stored with zero-access and end-to-end encryption, emails between Proton users can only be read by you and your recipient. Proton Mail can't read or scan your messages. Our open-source apps use OpenPGP encryption and are independently audited.

🎭 A private alternative to temp mail
Need a temp mail address for a sign-up? Create up to 10 free hide-my-email aliases on the web. They forward to your inbox, keep your real email address private, and can be disabled or deleted at any time.

🔄 Switch to secure email
Easy Switch moves your email to your new secure inbox with no manual exporting or importing. Connect Gmail to use your Gmail address alongside your Proton email in one secure inbox, or set up auto-forwarding from as many Gmail accounts as you like.

The Wall Street Journal: "Proton Mail offers encrypted email, which makes it virtually impossible for anyone to read it except the sender and the recipient."

💜 How can Proton Mail be free?
