About:
Criptext is a secure email service that prioritizes user privacy through end-to-end encryption, ensuring that only the sender and recipient can read messages. Unlike traditional email providers, it operates on a decentralized model where data is stored locally on the user's device rather than on central servers. This approach minimizes the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access to personal communications.
Key Features:
  • End-to-end encryption for all emails
  • Local storage of emails on device
  • No phone number required for signup
  • Open-source client code
Use Cases:
  • Sending sensitive business communications securely
  • Personal email usage with enhanced privacy controls
Alternatives:
  • ProtonMail – Criptext uses local storage while ProtonMail stores encrypted data on central servers
  • Signal – Signal is primarily a messaging app, while Criptext focuses on full-featured email
