Proton Mail is finally out of beta for your desktop, bringing all the security and features you know and love to Mac and PC. Linux is also on the way.
How to Download/Export All Your Protonmail Emails to Your PC
The Proton Mail service itself dates back to 2014, offering secure, encrypted email to all its users. It started as a web and mobile app, while a beta version for desktops was released in December last year. If you’re already a free Proton Mail user, you get a 14-day trial to see how it works for you.
The point is that a desktop app offers less distraction than a web app, given all the social media and online shopping you do on the web as well.
"With the new Proton Mail desktop apps, you get a dedicated email experience that lets you enjoy all the productivity innovations of our web app, allowing you to get through your emails and events faster without the potential distractions that pop up when you open your browser," wrote Proton Mail's David Dudok de Wit. And of course, your privacy remains protected at all times."
