Create an account

Sign up for a personal SipherMail account, choose your address, and finish the short setup that follows.

You can sign up on the web. The same account then signs in on the iPhone, iPad and Android apps.

Sign up#

  1. Open the sign-up page and choose Personal account. Teams and organisations choose Business account instead (see Business).
  2. Choose a plan. You can change it later. Details are on the pricing page.
  3. Pick a username. SipherMail checks whether it is available and shows your address on the siphermail.com domain.
  4. Enter your full name, a password and the password again. The password needs at least 8 characters, with one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter and one number.
  5. Accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, then select Create my SipherMail account.

The sign-up page also offers Continue with Google, Continue with Microsoft and Sign in with Apple.

After you sign up#

You are signed in straight away and the setup continues:

  1. Recovery method. Add a recovery email and verify it. See Recovery email.
  2. Recovery codes. Save the codes shown on screen before you continue.
  3. Go to Inbox. A short setup asks you to choose Privacy First or AI-Powered. Privacy First turns off all Sipher AI features.
  4. Passkey. You are offered passkey sign-in, which you can use instead of typing your password. See Signing in.
