User reviews

Addy.io is praised for its reliable and easy-to-use email aliasing features that significantly reduce spam and enhance online privacy. Users appreciate its intuitive dashboard and responsive support. However, it lacks a quick alias generation button on web forms and has some integration rough spots. Additionally, the limitation of 20 free aliases before needing to subscribe is a common concern among users.

Limited free usage with only 20 aliases before requiring subscription, which some users find restrictive.
