alternatives i’ve discovered and used long enough to recommend them. privacy focussed, no AI or options to opt out of AI, free but with reasonable paid options.

  1. Emphasizes privacy with end-to-end encryption, Proton Drive safely stores, synchronizes, and shares files across devices via web and mobile applications.

    does everything i need it to as a great alternative to google drive that won’t train AI with my photos.

  2. Your calendar is a record of your life. Proton Calendar helps keep it private.

    alternative to google calendar, with many of the same abilities. dislike that i can’t add event invites automatically from texts or email and have to manually put them in. would like a tasks/to do feature as all you can add are events. cant have any shared calendars that aren’t with proton. over all it does the trick but it leaves something to be desired

  3. Secure Swiss-based email with end-to-end encryption and zero third-party access. Available across devices, offering a free version to promote privacy.

    i enjoy knowing google is not reading all my emails or implementing a ton of AI features i don’t want. there were no category options when i installed this app like gmail has, however i adjusted and now am better at tagging and putting mail in folders. i am much more organised! cons; the free version is limited. calendar invite emails don’t automatically go onto my calendar.

  4. Your personal note-taking haven for privacy and efficiency.

    simple, easy to use with no issues, great free service. have tried numerous options and beaver notes stands out as an alternative to apple notes.
