Canary Mail is a polished, largely proprietary client for people who want encryption without wrestling with configuration. It offers built-in end-to-end encryption and full PGP support, plus a biometric app lock and on-device handling, with no ads or data mining. The mail sync engine is open source but the app itself is closed so you are placing trust in the vendor. PGP and its SecureSend feature sit behind the paid Pro+ tier. It is a reasonable choice on Apple and Windows if convenience outweighs full transparency.
