## Description

addy.io for Android lets you create and manage your email aliases and recipients from your phone, tablet, or Wear OS device. Connect to your hosted addy.io or your own self-hosted instance, enjoy a Material You inspired design, deep link to deactivate aliases from email banners, biometric lock, and app-exclusive features like watching aliases for new emails and sending from aliases. 

Security and privacy are core: encrypted preferences and backups, support for mTLS with self-hosted instances, and a privacy-first approach that avoids third-party collection. Export encrypted backups, log locally for troubleshooting, and manage aliases, recipients, domains, usernames, rules, and more on the go—including Wear OS widgets and quick access tiles.
