About this app

Simple end-to-end encryption to secure email and attachments on Gmail, Outlook or any other email provider.

- Sets up in a few taps
- Send encrypted email and attachments to anyone

FlowCrypt lets you use PGP end-to-end encryption by generating a private and public key. Sources available at https://github.com/FlowCrypt/

There are a few ways this encryption app stands out:
- Easy email encryption that just works.
- Anyone can use it. We've worked to ensure every single way possible that email encryption can be confusing has been removed, so that more people can encrypt Gmail or other email.
- You can send encrypted attachments. Text files, powerpoint slides, excel documents, image files, any and all files and attachments can be sent privately.
- No understanding of cryptography needed. Don’t know what a public key is? You don’t need to know to secure your email with FlowCrypt. Power users with an existing public key are also served.

Whether you have struggled with other ways to encrypt email or you are trying email encryption for the first time, you will find this a very simple secure email solution thanks to PGP.

PGP stands for Pretty Good Privacy it's the standard for secure email encryption. This Gmail end-to-end encryption plugin lets you encrypt Gmail messages anytime your email security and privacy matters, without having to think about it.

Most email providers don't give you the level of privacy that we should expect. That is why we created the FlowCrypt PGP plugin that lets you encrypt google email without needing to learn anything new.

Email PGP encryption has been historically a very difficult area, which few people used because there was no easy PGP solution around. If you were asked for a Public Key or a PubKey so that others can encrypt messages for you, just install FlowCrypt and you will find your new Public Key in the settings.

Also, file encryption is fully supported. To encrypt an attachment just open a compose screen, add the recipient's email, and attach a file. If they have encryption set up on their end, that's it - just send the encrypted email out.

PGP or the OpenPGP is a standard for encrypted communication used by more than 10 million people. FlowCrypt is compatible with most OpenPGP software out there.

Looking forward to your feedback! Email us at human@flowcrypt.com as we're improving the app every day.

Using encrypted mail with PGP keys is always a chore. This app though does simplify the setup and management. That being said, the reason for the 5-star is the support. I ran into a bug with MIME/64 encoding issues not allowing me to reply to an encrypted message. I sent an email to support, and immediately received a real response. They identified the problem, released an update, and emailed me it was done. Excellent support with a good app. Recommend.

This app is awesome but it's missing some key features which would make it 5 stars. For example, when deleting emails, it should go to the next email without going back to my inbox or at least give me the option to enable or allow the setting. Additionally, I should have the option to allow content (pictures, remote content, etc) from certain safe senders. If you can add these features I'll give 5 stars.

Pretty easy to set up and use. I would like it to have access to OpenKeychain for easier kay management, and also have the ability to reply/reply all/forward at the top, not just a reply to all. Some of my emails can get long in replies and I don't like that I have to scroll down to the bottom just to reply to one person in the chain. Other than that, it's a great app, well done.

We could add the reply-all and other options on the top, under three dots icon, similar to what Gmail does. That sounds like a good idea. It's now tracked here: https://github.com/FlowCrypt/flowcrypt-android/issues/693

What's new

- Fixed forwarding messages with regular attachments
- Fixed adding recipients for 'reply all' case
- Internal improvements
