Used by millions worldwide, our all-new email app protects your communications and has everything you need to easily manage your inbox.

Your inbox, your rules. • Rigorous encryption — Your entire inbox is secured, on all your devices. No one can read your emails but you. Proton is privacy, guaranteed by end-to-end and zero-access encryption. • Unmatched protection — We offer strong phishing, spam, and spying/tracking protection for all your communications. Industry Leading Security Features Messages are stored on Proton Mail servers using end-to-end encryption at all times and are transmitted securely between Proton servers and user devices. This largely eliminates the risk of message interception. Zero Access to Your Email Content Proton Mail's zero access architecture means that your data is encrypted in a way that makes it inaccessible to us. Data is encrypted on the client side using an encryption key that Proton does not have access to. This means we don't have the technical ability to decrypt your messages. Open-Source Cryptography Proton Mail's open-source software has been thoroughly vetted by security experts from around the world to ensure the highest levels of protection. Proton Mail only uses secure implementations of AES, RSA, along with OpenPGP, while all of the cryptographic libraries used are open source. By using open-source libraries, Proton Mail can guarantee that the encryption algorithms used do not have clandestinely built-in back doors. Proton Mail in the press: “Proton Mail is a Gmail-like email system which uses end-to-end encryption, making it impossible for outside parties to monitor.” Forbes “A new email service being developed by a group who met at MIT and CERN promises to bring secure, encrypted email to the masses and keep sensitive information away from prying eyes.” Huffington Post Follow Proton on social media for all the latest news and offers: Facebook: /proton Twitter: @protonprivacy Reddit: /protonmail Instagram: /protonprivacy Our open-source code base: https://github.com/ProtonMail EULA: http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/appstore/dev/stdeula

Stop scrolling. Start your day. Beddy locks the apps that eat your morning — you pick which ones, you pick the time window — and holds them closed until you photograph your made bed. He grades it in seconds, the shields drop, and the first win of the day is already yours. The feed can wait. The bed can't. HOW MORNING LOCK WORKS • Choose your apps and your morning window. It runs on Apple's Screen Time — iOS asks your permission when you set it up, and you can pause or turn it off anytime. • Wake up: inside your window, those apps show Beddy's shield instead of the feed. • Make your bed, snap a photo, get graded — and your apps unlock. Instantly. A LOCK WITH A FIRE EXIT Beddy is a nudge, not a hostage-taker. Your apps always free themselves at the end time you chose, no matter what. An emergency unlock works even offline. Pausing takes one tap — sick days, travel, guests. PICK YOUR JUDGE Gentle Beddy encourages you. Classic Beddy has *opinions*. Drill Sergeant Beddy once said "MY GRANDMOTHER'S FUTON HAS TIGHTER CORNERS." Same bed, three personalities — you choose how judged you want to feel. THE STREAK Every made morning grows your streak. Miss a day and Beddy notices ("Day 2 of being a lump. Thinking of you."). Life happens, so streak freezes are banked automatically — mercy is built in. This streak forgives; it just doesn't forget. DRESS HIM. HE'S EARNED IT. Streak milestones unlock Beddy's wardrobe: a sleep cap at 3 days, sunglasses at 7, a bow tie at 14, a crown at 30, a silk robe at 100. Outfits can't be bought — only earned. GRADED, THEN DELETED Your bedroom photo is graded, then deleted — only the grade and streak are saved. And your locked-app list never leaves your phone: Apple hands Beddy anonymous tokens, so he can't see which apps you chose or what happens inside them. He judges beds. He doesn't keep receipts. WHY A BED? Because "if you want to change the world, start off by making your bed." One tiny, visible win before the internet gets a vote — and a streak you'll protect with your life. BEDDY PLUS Morning Lock, all three voices, extra streak freezes, the full wardrobe, and multiple beds — with a 7-day free trial. Beddy is waiting. He's always waiting.
