I upgraded and since then it's been very easy to use

Will not import PGP keys (ASC) file that I have had for 10 years. Tried to import as a file and also as an attachment through email and just get "Error Loading Key". Would pay for the upgrade if I knew it would import my key. Using the app to generate a new key pair works fine but I want to use my current key. Will be watching for a fix. This app would work fine for someone creating a new key for the first time.

I purchased Pro version because I like the idea that the keys are not not stored on the phone in case it gets stolen. They are stored encrypted on a proprietary server. The user interface is not very intuitive in places but the developer has been very responsive to my questions via email and I suspect he will clear these issues up in future releases. PS to the developer. One feature request I have is that Secure Mail be associated with the .asc extension. That way when the PGP attachment (encrypted.asc) is opened from the email client, Secure Mail will be on the list of apps that can open it. Right now on my phone at least, the default android email client and gmail are the only choices and I use neither.

Easy to operate for beginners like me. Also very strong encryption for all users.

Purchased and uninstalled. Using Spring Samsung Galaxy S4. Doesn't work. Great idea in principle but not ready for the big time. Stick with APG.

About this app

Tired of reading articles about government snooping on the email of private citizens? Want to do something to secure your email communication with friends, family, and coworkers? Tried other encrypted email solutions only to be disappointed with their complexity? If these questions apply to you, this app will solve your problems! Secure Mail allows you to store keys on your local android device, or to store them securely on a remote server. You can even sync your keys between devices!

Security is my #1 concern. Your data is secured using AES256 encryption and a password of your choosing. Even if the government were to retrieve the entire database, they would still be unable to retrieve your keys!

Secure Mail was designed to meet three specific goals. First, this application should provide a pleasing user experience - unlike many other PGP clients I've seen. Two, this application should function outside of your existing email software. That way, you're free to use your preferred mail client for the majority of your communications that aren't encrypted. When you receive an encrypted email, Secure Mail will allow you to view it and to create encrypted messages - without requiring a proprietary email client. Third, Secure Mail was designed to create a way for email keys to be securely stored on a remote server. Thus, your keys are never on your local device. This optional feature is available only to Secure Mail Pro users - and can be unlocked by upgrading under the settings menu.

Secure communications don't need to be the stuff of a sci-fi movie - it's here today!

Your feedback is appreciated. I will strive to quickly resolve any issues that arise and to implement enhancements that will improve the quality of this application.
