Solid up to date PGP offering

One of the few (it not only) iOS PGP apps that’s kept up to date, and the developer is responsive to reported problems.

Works as advertised

This version fixes the concerns I had and seems to work well. Thanks for the prompt response.

This version may have a photo selection problem.

If privacy settings on photos indicate “only selected”, it sometimes may not include all the selected file(s) in the sending email. There may be other anomalies. For example some temporary local files were not removed when prompted for removal during clearing and specifying the removal of temporary files. Not sure what triggers this. Having said this, I would still install it since it seems otherwise solid.

Response from developer

Im not sure which features or fixes you are referring to. Nothing was removed in the last update. Please send email to info@ipgmail.com with specific details and I will address them in a future update.

This version breaks regression

Many of the latest features and bug fixes previously added were removed with this version. For example some temporary cloud files are no longer prompted for removal when deleting them. Keys have the same potential problem they used to have. I’m surprised that a regression suite is not apparently run.

Super schneller Support und Fehlerbehebung

Der Support war wirklich beeindruckend schnell. Mein gemeldetes Problem wurde in kürzester Zeit analysiert und behoben, und das Update stand erstaunlich schnell bereit. So eine schnelle und zuverlässige Fehlerbehebung erlebt man selten. Das hat mich wirklich positiv überrascht.

Top App – zuverlässig & einfach zu nutzen

ipgmail ist übersichtlich, zuverlässig und tut genau das, was sie soll. Die Einrichtung ging schnell und unkompliziert, die App läuft stabil

Ehh not great all purpose

Adding a Public PGP to encrypt isn't easy hence the low review. Other apps it's a simple copy paste, but they aren't capable of modern encryption methods. This one as I understand it is capable of the modern encryption methods but isn't as simplified as the other apps. Forced to use my laptop to do that in the simplified way I can do.

Can't say it isn't possible but it's not friendly to people who aren't super competant (me admittedly.)

I'm sure many of the features work for what it's designed for but given the limited PGP options on iOS this isn't super easy and not worth the money if that's what you're seeking

Key Import Issues?

I’ve been having issues recently while attempting to import one of my GPG private keys. Specifically, when importing, I get an error saying “Authentication Failed”. I’m able to do this without fail on a different private key that I generated not that long ago. The only difference between the two is that the first secret key I attempted to import was extended as it expired earlier this year. It works perfectly fine with the GPG software, so wondering if there is an incompatibility with keys which have had their expiration extended? It would be nice if this could be addressed and resolved as I use the app on a regular basis.

Sehr gut

Funktioniert wie es soll! Hatte einmal einen Bug, hab dem Entwickler geschrieben und der hat sich dann auch sofort drum gekümmert

Schnelle Fehlerbehebung

Danke 🙏

Still broke

Been Broke for some time. OS 26.1 still no joy.

Latest Update Broke Everything

UPDATE: After reinstalling the all, I’ve discovered that everything is broke, from decrypting files to importing/exporting keys!! I hope the developer fixes this soon. For reference, I’m running the iPhone 14 Pro Max.


Normally iPGMail works completely fine, however after installing the most recent update, I can no longer manually type recipients to mail encrypted media too. In addition, the Face ID isn’t working as it should. I have restarted my phone but have yet to reinstall the app. Will try that and report back

Great PGP option for iPhone

Easy to use interface with import feature

Deceiving-app is focused only on file encryption, not messaging. Can’t encrypt plain text within app

Waste of money

Great app

Very useful, nice user interface with great support and very helpful developer.

Solid PGP option for mobile

Easy to use interface

Excellent, indispensable app...

Very grateful to the talented developer for this little gem. It has become an essential part of my daily workflow. I wish he provided a way for us to tip him regularly, so that he remains motivated to maintain the app. There is nothing like it in the App Store. I hope it will live on for many more years. Thank you, Mr. Ingersoll, for creating high-quality software that respects user privacy, works flawlessly, and has a modern, fluid interface.
