PreVeil Drive PreVeil Drive encrypts your files and lets you store, share, and access them anywhere. PreVeil Email PreVeil Email allows you to send encrypted messages to other PreVeil users. End-to-End Encryption Every document and message is encrypted with a unique key before it leaves your device and isn't decrypted until it reaches its destination. Neither PreVeil nor any third party can decrypt your data because only you have the decryption keys. Since your data is never decrypted in the cloud, you are protected even if the cloud is breached. Uses your existing Email address: Just as some apps use a person’s phone number to identify each user, PreVeil uses your email address. That can be your personal email address (like Gmail) or your work email address. Easy Access from Mac and PC: You can use PreVeil on your computer as well. After installing the PreVeil software on your computer, you can access your email from a web browser or through popular mail applications like Outlook and Apple Mail. When you use Outlook or Apple Mail, PreVeil automatically adds a new INBOX for your encrypted messages. When you send and receive from the PreVeil mailboxes, the emails are encrypted and secure. No Passwords: Your data is secured by something much better — encryption keys that belong only to you. Your "private key" is your gateway to the PreVeil system. It's stored only on your devices, and is not accessible anywhere else. Unlike passwords, private keys cannot be guessed by a computer algorithm or stolen from another website. Automatic invitation to someone who isn’t a PreVeil member: If you send an email or share a folder with anyone who is not a PreVeil member, they’ll automatically be invited to join for free. Alternatively, you can encourage them to sign up for PreVeil by visiting www.preveil.com or downloading from the Apple App Store. Committed to your Privacy: PreVeil cannot access your data because it's encrypted, and PreVeil will never sell your information or anything else you share with us – ever.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

EMS.SDS holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PreVeil has 34 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of EMS.SDS's written reviews are positive against 54% of PreVeil's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

EMS.SDS ships an update every 6 weeks, PreVeil every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
