    +End-to-end Encryption: Criptext uses the open source Signal Protocol library to encrypt your emails. Your emails are locked with a unique key that‘s generated and stored on your device alone, which means only you and your intended recipient can read the emails you send.

    +No data collection: unlike every other email service out there, Criptext doesn't store your emails in its servers. Instead, your entire inbox is stored exclusively on your device.

    +Open Source: our source code is open for everyone to see that Criptext actually works the way it's advertised. You don't have to trust us, you can verify for yourself: https://github.com/Criptext

    +Easy to use: our app is designed to work as simple as any other email app — so much so, you'll forget how secure it is.

    If this Review contains spam or other abuse, notify admins about it.

    From using Criptext for the past 6 months now, I've come to consider it one of the best open source, security and privacy minded email application out there. I also use other open source privacy minded email, but criptext is quickly becoming my favorite. Their UX design is well thought through, and this gives it such a solid look and feel. Furthermore that fact that your email is not stored in any 3rd-party server is such a big plus!

    HI Jerry.

    1. Criptext use AWS meaning AMAZON WEB SERVERS. Tehy do not have own servers. You can check by yourself , I got this information straight from Criptext costumer service. If you send and email to someone and that someone for some reason can not receive the email , your email will stack in Amazon Servers for 30 days before they delete it.
    2. When you send an email from Criptext to another Criptext user , the email is encypted . BUt if you send an email from criptext to NON criptext user , so for example gmail the email NOT encrypted at all and everyone can read your private email. You can check by yourself you will see.
    3. Its not true they are based in Switzerland. Its fake.

    Been evaluating alternativeTo Gmail. Used protonmail for a bit, but was not totally comfortable, which has opensourced only part of their UI (They are not an opensource product).

    Criptext looks promising so far. Been using it for the last 2 months, and migrating all banking/finance apps to this email.

    Still using gmail for login to third party apps though.
