Gmail alternative
Private mail that still reaches Gmail.
The most secure email on the planet
An iCloud Mail alternative that isn't locked to your Apple ID
iCloud Mail is convenient until the identity is the Apple ID. QeyeT is a free @qeyet.com inbox with device-held keys, the App Store app on iPhone, and the same address on Android, Windows, Linux, and the web.
QeyeT vs Typical iCloud Mail
Apple ID is the identity. QeyeT recovery words are the identity.
| Topic | QeyeT Mail | Typical iCloud Mail |
|---|---|---|
| Cost to start | Free personal preview | Free with Apple ID |
| Where history lives | Encrypted vault on devices you authorize | Apple-held iCloud mailbox |
| Works off Apple | Web, Android, Windows, Linux, iPhone | Best inside Apple ID |
| Email anyone | Yes — Gmail, Outlook, iCloud | Yes |
| Phone number | Not required | Apple ID recovery usually needs one |
| Leave cleanly | Export + recovery words | Apple ID remains the identity |
When iCloud Mail is the wrong identity
Keep the iPhone. Stop gluing the inbox to Apple ID.
- You want private mail that still works if you leave Apple hardware
- You don't want your inbox identity glued to Apple ID
- You use Android or Windows alongside iPhone
- You want keys on devices you authorize, not iCloud by default
Frequently asked questions
Does QeyeT Mail run on iPhone without an Apple ID signup?
The app is on the App Store. The QeyeT account itself is created at mail.qeyet.com with recovery words, not with Apple ID.
What happens to my address if I leave Apple hardware?
The address stays @qeyet.com. Open it on web, Android, Windows, or Linux. You are not stuck inside iCloud.
Can people who still use iCloud Mail write me?
Yes. iCloud, Gmail, and Outlook can all send to @qeyet.com.
I already created the address on the web. How do I add iPhone?
Install QeyeT Mail, then link with Settings → Devices → Show QR. Prefer QR over typing recovery words for day-to-day.
Is this iCloud Mail with extra encryption bolted on?
No. It is a separate account. Keys live on devices you authorize. Transit is courier-only.
