Read full description

Il sistema BallanNET è costituito da accessori hardware (BallanNET HUB e RIOB), un BallanNET cloud-server e da un’applicazione (BallanNET app) per Smartphone. BallanNET app instaura connessioni mediante BallanNET cloud-server con gli BallanNET HUB, i quali dialogano via radio (in modo bidirezionale in protocollo di codifica dedicato) con i dispositivi periferici RIOB. BallanNET HUB richiede la presenza di una connessione internet con WiFi 2.4GHz. BallanNET app consente di configurare un amministratore e più utenti e di definire scenari di utilizzo. Per proteggere l'integrità e la riservatezza dei dati scambiati, BallanNET si avvale del protocollo HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) e di un protocollo criptografico dedicato. Per tutelare la privacy dell’utente il BallanNET cloud-server conserverà solamente un nome, una password e un codice generato da BallanNET app detto BallanNET code. Il nome utente e la password sono di fantasia e costituiscono l’account dell’utente stesso: reinserendo tali credenziali e il BallanNET code in un nuovo smartphone il precedente smartphone sarà disabilitato.

About

MailLoyal

Features
Read full description

MailLoyal treats a cPanel mailbox as a first-class citizen — the same care Gmail and iCloud get everywhere else — and it does it without a server of its own. Everything runs on your phone. There is no MailLoyal account, nothing to sign up for, and no company in the middle: your mail goes between your device and your mail server and stops there. • Add any IMAP mailbox — cPanel, Gmail, iCloud, Fastmail, Zoho, Yahoo — with guided setup that finds the right server settings for you. • A Connection Doctor that tells you exactly what went wrong when a server will not answer, instead of "could not connect". • Always encrypted. MailLoyal tries TLS, then STARTTLS, and stops if neither is on offer. It will never quietly send your password in the clear. • Works offline: mail you have already seen opens instantly, and a flag or an archive made on a train replays when you land. • Draft replies with AI: say what you want in a few words, in any language, and MailLoyal writes a kind, professional reply that fits the conversation. It runs on your own AI key, and nothing is sent until you have read every word. • Beautiful signatures, optionally generated by AI using your own API key. • Optional ad-free: the iPhone and iPad app shows ads; a monthly subscription or a one-time purchase removes them. • Speaks your language: MailLoyal is available in 47 languages and follows your device automatically, or you can choose one in Settings. • A design that is actually yours: eight accents, a full custom hue picker, and a dark mode that was drawn, not inverted.
