Hi. We do have push but encrypted replies from non-user recipients (which many will be) do sometimes need a quick fetch/check email. If you keep app open and don’t completely shut it down that may improve things but we will send to our developers. If memory serves they designed it like that for a reason but we’ll ask.
Excellence!!

Thank you so much!!!
Works well

Great to hear! Very much appreciated!!
Proton mail? Try this and keep your actual email too.
I’ve tried a lot of secure email solutions over the years, including Proton Mail, and what surprised me most about SecureMyEmail is how little attention it gets compared to how good it actually is.
The biggest advantage for me is that it brings end-to-end encryption to practically any email address. I didn’t have to abandon my existing email or convince everyone I know to switch providers. That’s a huge deal and something I haven’t found many other services doing nearly as well.
The mobile apps are also genuinely excellent. In fact, I find them faster and easier to use than a lot of dedicated email apps. Based on some of the reviews, I expected something clunky or complicated, but my experience has been the complete opposite.
What I like most is that it gives me a lot of the privacy and security benefits people associate with Proton Mail, but without requiring me to move my entire email life into a new ecosystem. It feels like having Proton-style encryption for the email addresses I already use.
No app is perfect, but I honestly think this product deserves a much higher rating than it currently has. If you’re looking for a practical way to add real email privacy and encryption without changing email providers, this is one of the most underrated options out there.

Thank you soooo much for this!! We too are puzzled we’re not a much bigger hit. Lol. Protonmail is great so it would seem a service giving you the same protection for the email you already have would get at least the same attention. Maybe someday we will! Thank you again for noticing what we agree is a fantastic idea. 😀
Awesomeness
Installation was a breeze and UI looks very familiar.
I give 10 out 10 and highly recommend this app.
Updated info: Feb 2025
I was having trouble with my 2FA, but the customer support from SME was super fast and helpful. Honestly, I’m even bigger fan of this app now ! If email encryption is your concern - this is the way !
Ethical, secure, friendly, but gray UI
Keep up the good work you beautiful human beings.
Response from developer
Thanks! Btw, the UI shouldn’t be “gray.” There are several color options in menu. Default should be a magenta, actually.
Not impressed.
Only installed on one iOS device
Response from developer
Determined to be an issue with Bitdefender VPN interfering. Correct? Thank you.
Easy Setup & Working Well
Easy To Install and Use
still buggy
Response from developer
Hi. Unified inbox is forthcoming. Most users decided it was not a critical feature versus encryption. Primary mission was to provide easy encryption for any email address. Not be a replacement for vanilla email clients. Shouldn’t be errors unless you are maybe changing your ip address frequently with vpn etc, Google and Microsoft do not like that so you have to reauthenticate sometimes. Please contact support and we will see if we can help. We use with our vpn and see few issues so could be with your vpn and ip handoffs or dns issues. Happy to help.
Pure Rubbish
Response from developer
The email says it’s through securemyemail. Hardly “advertising” and it’s free. Recipients absolutely do not have to sign up. Your criticism is you have to use our app? :)
Mobile encrypted email
High level encryption, one click send interface
Has Potential
App won’t open
Response from developer
Hi. could be a conflict with another app. did you contact support? we're 24x7x365.
Need iPad App
Update. iPad landscape support was released awhile back. A display issue was quickly fixed.
Response from developer
Hello. Yes, we are working on a specific version for iPad. We are a small company so this will take a little time. May we humbly ask that you give us some time to do that without downgrading our service with a severe review? :) Thanks. Update- we’ve had iPad version for a while now. Did u try?
No support
Hacker sabotaged my SME encrypted emails. Despite my best efforts to engage with support and provide screen capture footage as well as screenshots outlining the issue, I was insulted by someone who proclaimed to be support for SME.
Very disappointed with the service.
Nichts funktioniert
Verschwendete Lebenszeit.
Stopped working
Response from developer
Hi. probably a 10-second fix. Sometimes your email provider will want you to sign in again to verify, especially if you changed your IP address with a VPN, etc. Did you contact support?
