Review summary

FlowCrypt Android app is praised for simplifying PGP email encryption and delivering excellent support. Users appreciate its seamless browser integration and enterprise features. However, the Android app faces criticism for poor integration compared to the browser extension, frequent issues with key management and message reading, unreliable email sending, and missing convenient features. Despite some stability problems, users find it user-friendly and recommend it for encrypted email, noting room for improvement in mobile-specific functionality.

Pros

Simplifies the setup and management of PGP encrypted email.
Excellent and responsive customer support that quickly fixes issues.
Seamless integration with browser-based Gmail.
User-friendly interface with clear instructions, making encryption accessible to non-experts.
Works well with Outlook and offers internal key management suitable for enterprise use.

Cons

Android app integration is poor compared to browser extension, with limitations due to Google's restrictions.
Issues with importing and detecting public keys, leading to difficulty reading encrypted messages.
Sending emails from the app sometimes fails or is unreliable.
Lack of features such as deleting emails properly and limited control over content display (e.g., remote images).
Crashes or errors upon reopening the app, reducing usability.

2024-12-24	Ja*****	The plugin is great! Lets me use my PGP keys that do not necessarily correspond to my Gmail account username (yet I have my email addresses authorized to send via Gmail). The mobile apps, however, require me to use a key that has my Gmail account name in it, which is inconvenient and completely overlooks my use cases.

2024-01-21	PJ*****	Using encrypted mail with PGP keys is always a chore. This app though does simplify the setup and management. That being said, the reason for the 5-star is the support. I ran into a bug with MIME/64 encoding issues not allowing me to reply to an encrypted message. I sent an email to support, and immediately received a real response. They identified the problem, released an update, and emailed me it was done. Excellent support with a good app. Recommend.
