What it does for you
Proton Mail is an email service built around privacy. Your inbox is encrypted so that only you can read it, and the company, based in Switzerland, does not scan your messages for advertising.
It looks and works like any modern email app, and includes a calendar. Proton also offers a VPN, cloud storage, and a password manager under the same account.
Good to know
- The free plan includes one address and limited storage.
- Emails to people on other services are protected in transit, but full end-to-end encryption works best between Proton users.
