Social recommendations and mentions

We have tracked the following product recommendations or mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you see what people think about Cryptee and what they use it for.
  • Svelte Native: The Svelte Mobile Development Experience
    > The only major hurdle to this is Apple continuing to treat web apps as second class citizens on iOS If you add a site to iOS' homescreen it automatically becomes a PWA. The best example I found of a site fully leveraging this feature is Cryptee[0]. They talk about the PWA thing here: https://crypt.ee/download [0] https://crypt.ee/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
  • Hard for me to trust UpNote
    Well, then - if self hosting is not your thing - something like crypt.ee might be your thing? Clearly a different pricing model, data is fully encrypted, open source, across platforms. Source: 5 months ago
  • Where do you write? Why?
    Https://crypt.ee now. I used to mostly use local markdown editors like Ulysses and Zettlr. Source: 10 months ago
  • Need suggestions for Free, Open-source, privacy focused diary/Journaling app?
    Crypt.ee Ticks 1/2/3/5 of your requirements However free tier only has 100MB storage which might be enough for a journal, it also has the best rich text editor of them all, would highly recommend. Source: 11 months ago
  • Google Drive alternative for editing files on all devices
    I've only used it for editing docs but have found crypt.ee very easy to use. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Moving my ecosystem from gmail to proton, what to do about Docs,Sheets,Slides,Forms? What services are available?
    Cryptee (https://crypt.ee) currently lacks spreadsheet but has a fantastic encrypted word processor/doc suite as well as Photos/Videos. Source: about 1 year ago
  • What is a good open source and privacy friendly Android E-reader for books?
    Cryptee (https://crypt.ee) has native support for epub books and is client-side encrypted so very private. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Would you prefer more document support or photos support?
    Highly recommend Cryptee (https://crypt.ee) It’s amazing! Source: about 1 year ago
  • why do a lot of linux users hate Google and its products?
    Use ProtonMail/Tutanota instead of Gmail. Use Brave Search (get familiar with their new "Goggles Beta" feature; it's actually very cool and very useful) and Startpage search (gives you Google's search results, but privately). Use Cryptee or Cryptpad for your Google Docs alternative. Get a Google Pixel 6a and flash CalyxOS on it. Use Brave or Firefox/Librewolf. Source: about 1 year ago
  • I'm looking for a Focus Writer alternative that lets you add pictures
    Its been a while since I used FocusWriter but there's Cryptee. Source: about 1 year ago
  • alternative to google photos
    Agreed that self-hosting is the most private way but if that is not an option for you, try Cryptee (https://crypt.ee) It’s an encrypted wird processor (think GPhotos or MSWord) and Photos (beautiful minimal UI) and recently added support for videos as well. Source: about 1 year ago
  • best alternatives to Google Drive for writing?
    Try to check crypt.ee and cryptpad.fr. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Searching for Secure Note Apps
    If you really value a polished web based solution you might consider crypt.ee (It works as a PWA) I've heard ppl say they like it (It's looks like a hybrid cloud storage/document editor), but I don't have personal experience with it. There's a free tier with 100 MB storage, so you can test it if it looks interesting. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Excellent collection of privacy alternatives to.... just about everything
    Under third-party. You can CTRL+F in a desktop browser to search "crypt.ee" and it should pop up. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Excellent collection of privacy alternatives to.... just about everything
    Sad to not see Cryptee (https://crypt.ee) on this list. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Is there a drive storage that don’t scan your files?? I’ve heard stories of google deleting drive files of some people because of copyright issues and it giving me privacy chills!!
    If you're a serious photographer, consider https://crypt.ee/. It is sort of like Google Photos, but everything is private and encrypted. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Does this notes app exist
    I'd recommend https://crypt.ee/ You can use on all platforms, you can upload photos and videos. You can leverage ghost folders that will not appear unless you call them up, and the app is password protected. Its great. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Cryptee + Google login issues
    I was coming back to Cryptee (https://crypt.ee/) after a while and noticed they added login with Google. This poses a bunch of problems that I found:. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Save/open photo in new tab has different behaviour in Chrome and Firefox
    If I open photo in crypt.ee it opens build in photo viewer and if I click on that photo with right mouse, I can "open in new tab" and save to my disk and there are difference between Chrome and Firefox. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Google photos or iCloud
    In practice, you're right, but as far as I know neither Google nor Apple currently provide that specific functionality. Have you looked at other options? Crypt.ee offers the functionality you're looking for, and I think Sync.com does, as well. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Crypt.ee "Ghost" folders are still detectable!
    Problem with crypt.ee is, if I make "ghost" folder and hide my files into that, is still possible find out, there are "ghost" folder with files. How? Remaining space! So you still can be forced reveal your "ghost" folder name. Source: over 1 year ago

How I keep Google’s eyes off of my diary
Cryptee isn’t the only privacy-minded documents app. Turtl is a private platform built with a similar mission. It is currently free to use and, like Cryptee, it does not store user passwords or information and is protected by both your password and your cryptographic key. It is available on Windows, Mac, and Android, but not iOS.
