User Reviews

Users praise Virtru for strong encryption and ease of switching between secure and non-secure modes, with several calling it essential for enterprise use. Yet frequent crashes, reliability and delivery problems (drafts lost, messages not sent), slow syncing, and privacy concerns about data access dominate the feedback. Device and iOS compatibility issues, including passcode lockouts, compound the usability problems.
Pros
  • Excellent encryption and automatic encryption of the email body and attachments.
  • Easy toggle between secure and normal modes for emails.
  • Great for quick secure emails and attachments; valued in enterprise contexts.
  • Long-term user base with years of use and appreciation of security features.
  • Regarded by some as a life-saver for secure communications.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and the app won’t open on startup or after updates.
  • Reliability issues: emails not sending or arriving, verification/activation errors, and drafts disappearing.
  • Slow performance and inconsistent refresh; emails load in batches and latest messages can lag.
  • Privacy concerns about Virtru potentially accessing or downloading all emails.
  • Passcode/lockout issues on iOS and compatibility problems with some devices (iPad, certain OS versions).
