Proton Mail Description
Proton Mail was founded in Switzerland, and all of our servers are located there. All user data is protected under strict Swiss privacy laws. All emails are encrypted automatically using end-to-end encryption. This means that even we cannot read or decrypt your emails. Your encrypted emails cannot therefore be shared with any third parties. To create your secure email account, you don't need to provide any personal information. We do not store IP logs that can be linked to your anonymous account. Your privacy is paramount. Email privacy should be accessible to everyone, according to us. Our code is open-source and basic Proton Mail accounts come free. Support the project by donating to it or upgrading to a paid account. Proton Mail is compatible with all devices without the need for software installation. Proton Mail Business allows you to keep your business email address. You can send and receive encrypted email both within and outside your organization.

The 1st provider you hear when you want a privacy-respecting e-mail Date: Mar 02 2022
Summary: Overall, ProtonMail is a solid choice for a privacy-respecting e-mail provider, there are some issues, like services not recognizing your ProtonMail address, but it's only minor.
Positive: The web client is great for all my needs, and ProtonMail is a privacy-respecting e-mail provider, based on Switzerland.
Negative: No IMAP support on the free plan, and you also need to use an app for that to happen.

Low storage - only 500 mb.
My grandparents have used ProtonMail for their e-mails (I created so they can use some government services), and some of those services would not recognize. -

Great privacy-centric emails Date: Aug 15 2021
Summary: This is one of the best privacy centric email services around. If more of them nailed the user interface like this one does, Gmail should be scared.
Positive: The # draw is that this is a secure, privacy-focused email alternative. It also has a very sleek interface.
Negative: Understandably, it does not offer a large amount of storage, only 500MB, so no hoarding like you would with gmail.

More private mail Date: Nov 19 2020
Summary: I keep going back and forth between this and Tutanota. For the time being, I prefer Tutanota though I think ProtonMail is the more polished of the two. Both are good services for encrypted mail. I'd give them both and try and see which one you prefer.
Positive: ProtonMail offers encrypted emails, so it's a good option for those looking for a more private, secure email service compared to the bigger ones out there like Gmail and Outlook. It's got fairly priced options, and the free version isn't too bad either.
Negative: Much like Tutanota, however, you can't use this as your only email account because a lot of services won't recognize it as a "valid" email service even though it very obviously is.

- The IOS app is somewhat bug-prone and could use more polish and if possible integrate more with the system.
- No MacOS app -

Got away from gmail! Date: Feb 28 2021
Summary: I really like using Proton mail. The best part is that I am no longer tied to Google mail in any way and have removed all four of the accounts that I had there. Proton mail has given me the security of knowing that I have a level of privacy.
Positive: Can encrypt if you want, or not. All settings are available and it is easy to set up everything. Have a free version that I am currently using and it is not restricted in any way. Allows for two-factor authorization.
Negative: Just couldn't find any cons as of yet. Have used the program for about 3 months.
