It seemed to work. But it took 5 minutes to decrypt a draft of my email. Chrome kept saying it wasn't responding. But it eventually worked.

The idea of not sending passwords is great! Easy to setup with great features such as time based expirations for sent mail ... Well Done!

I'm not sure what the negative reviews were expecting. This gives you a very secure solution without having to send everyone passwords, or using a separate email for secure (like Proton). Ideal for exchange of private information, intellectual properties, and that grocery list you encrypted just cuz.

Great tool for business or personal email. No password needed on the receiving which makes it easier for receiver to read and reply and not remembering passwords.

It got the job done for me to send a secure email but the chrome extension broke gmail's cursor placement when forwarding any other email while the virtru extension was enabled. The cursor would skip the To: field and go straight to the body of the email or it would populate the To: field with the email address of the original sender instead of getting ready for me to enter the email addresses of the people where I want to forward the message. Very annoying when using keyboard shortcuts in Gmail.

I don't know how this junk makes it in the store. First it does not work in Gmail HTML view. Second all their contact pages do not use https (a security company!!!). I had to reinstall the app to give it a one star (should have the option to rate no stars=Junk). Stay away from these clowns!
