DEAD

Email is so important in business and life. I was going to avoid this product because of this but decided to go ahead and purchase. Bad decision. it worked initially however... No communication from the developers and now the site appears to be 404. Ban these people from selling here in the future.

Email?

This needs more negative reviews.
The email barely worked, and now they sell LLMS?

Negative!

Collected all LTD subscriptions, then abandoned the project. There is not even a trace of the email app on their website.

Telios the future of e-mail

I bought this deal! I have a mailbox at proton mail, but I want to try Telios which looks promising!
I downloaded Telios on my iMac and everything works perfectly!
Thanks for this deal ;-)

Looks promising

The world gathers a lot of information from us, but this guys wants to improve that, adding value to our privacy.
Even though it isn't the best email app right now, it looks like it's going to be a fantastic one: they are active in the discord answering questions and ideas, they update the app frequently, and one can see that they are working hard to deliver what's in the pipeline. I really wish them good luck for this adventure! I can't wait to use it as my main email provider, letting behind ProtonMail.
And ofc, I got 2 codes.

Doesn’t work

I tried the software for Ubuntu, both the Debian and AppImage. Neither worked. I submitted a support ticket and have received no response.

Asking for a refund.

We apologize for the inconvenience you might have gone through.
Please note that we are still in the BETA phase, so it's normal to have things slow for now. We are working towards making Telios user-friendly to all our customers or users. Kindly forward request to support@telios.io so we can help process a refund.

Strangely good but support was a little slow.

This works just like paced.mail and burnermail.io except that it's super secure and is a desktop app. I like it. Very quick to set up and get going.

Definitely, 2 stack if you're getting this. Try out the trial if unsure.

Support was a little slow for me but I'm generally an impatient guy.

On macOS client when receiving email it does not auto-refresh or fetch and the client crashes when going into Account Settings > Plan & Billing.

I like the idea of decentralized email service, hope it matures to the level of ProtonMail if not exceeds it in the every near future. Would also be nice if a calendar feature is added along with delayed or timed emails plus recall sent emails (if possible) through an override function if the email has not been opened by the client.

Happ,

Thank you for your review. The Plan/Billing page should be fixed as of this morning, we pushed an update last night to our API server that introduced a bug impacting the pricing page. Let us know if you are still experiencing issues.

We appreciate your support and hope to be able to bring the calendar feature to our service once we are out of Beta. Thank you for your time.

Disappointing Start

Thought I'd give this a try as I can see it being useful potentially, however having downloaded the MAC client, I sent myself an email from Telios which arrived, so I replied to it, so far, 6 hours later, it hasn't arrived in my Telious account.

Whilst the lack of a web client maybe more secure, email just disappearing, is maybe TOO secure. I have logged an issue, but all I have is a web form to send in, no reply so far, so no real idea how/when it will get responded to.

Hard to give more than 2 tacos at this point, nice idea, but needs to do the simplest of things, which it doesn't appear to. Will update this review if we progress before I get bored waiting and refund.

What is advertised is not what you get

A lot features are advertised on AppSumo but many of them are just some ideas for the future. If you are buying this, consider what you see on the description is not what you get. Everything is on a road map to be made once in the blue moon

Unusable at this state

At the current state, it is unusable.

When you send e-mails, it is sent in plain text. All that security they implement is for telios to telios users only. 99.999999% of the people won't be using telios, so at the current state, it is no safer than sending your e-mail via gmail.

The moment they upload your e-mail to a website, protected by password, expire date, etc, it will be much more private.

If telios can come up with a creative way people we e-mail can quickly check the mail we send privately and securely, the better. I've seen chrome extension that uses iframe or other methods. I've even seen an gmail extension that see the e-mail user is logged into and they can read the e-mail without needing a password. I have to say, password is annoying. If they can come up with ways to eliminate it, that would be great!

Early but promising

Brought double code package, hoping they execute the vision presented as the prospect is exciting.

Emails send and receive fast and reliably in first tests, though when sending to traditional email address with 4 - 24 MB attachments would fail from Telios client and never arrive when sent from Gmail but also not bounce back....

Hope Android users don't have to wait too long for mobile support, I am hoping to transition main email from gmail / outlook to Telios once mature enough and custom domain support rolls out. Windows client works but is very bare bones, could be interesting managing large email collection as it is atm.

Thank you for the feedback and suggestions. Regarding the app release, our mobile app is shipping in late July/August. The mobile app will be launching on iOS first and then on Android

Promising

Looks great, and they are always listening to the community, still lots of things to do since they are just starting, but once they have the mobile application and the synchronization between devices, in my opinion it will begin to take shape as my main email.

Hopefully the manage to add the option to remove or at least change namespaces, since I didn't know this and now I have to weird namespaces out of 10 used. This offer is a must have in my opinion if you are really into privacy.

The future of mail services

2 codes without hesitation, looking forward to the development of Telios, very good service, Mac runs smoothly, if Telios continues to develop well, it will be the future of mail service, please keep it stable and secure and private, this is mail basis of service. At present, 2 problems have been found, and I don't know if it is normal:
1. After the client clicks to close, the client can no longer be awakened in the program dock. If you want to keep running, you can only minimize it
2. You will need to re-enter your password after logging out completely and turning it on again

Ting, thank you so much for putting your faith in our product. And also thank you for the feedback, sounds like we still have some work to do :)
1. Definitely a bug. We added that to our backlog to fix.
2. Right now password is the only auth but we will be looking to simplify things by leveraging things like biometrics and pins.

A very interesting approach

For a long time I have been interested in everything to do with blockchain and applications based on it.

So I didn't hesitate and bought 2 codes.

Telios itself, although it is still a beta version, already makes a very mature impression and works smoothly.

The app for macOS is functional and visually very appealing. The support is great and replies pretty quickly (via Discord).

I'm already looking forward to the apps for iOS and of course the custom domains.

Thank you for bringing Telios to AppSumo.

Customer service response is wonderful

1. The customer service is so fast, concise, and friendly.
2. THE SOFTWARE IS ONLY AVAILABLE FOR WINDOWS, APPLE, and LINUX. It wasn't mentioned on the sales page when I purchased it.
3. See number 2 before you buy.
4. Neither Chromebook nor mobile devices are currently supported. You can't respond to emails in a timely manner unless you have access to your desktop from your mobile phone. There will be a mobile app released by the end of the summer. Initially, it will be for iOS devices.

Personally, I am excited about the mobile app when it launches for Android. However, they should have mentioned the limitations somewhere on the sales page. I'm still deciding whether to wait for the Android app to be released or request a refund.

The concept deserves a five taco review if they deliver on the app(s) and include Chrome platform.

need cname soon

I've bought 2 packages and tried it, good idea, but after downloading the file to install, I don't like it when I see a strange email, so you need to complete the cname to let user use personal email @mydomain.com, this will attract people to use Telios

Custom Domains is something we plan on releasing later this year. We agree we you that allowing users to use their own domain will raise the attractiveness of our product. Thank you for your feedback.

I like it

So far I like it, it's one of those tech advances where it's different enough and uses strange techy words that it's kinda confusing, but here is my smooth brain understanding:

Basically you can think of it as basic email service with good amount of storage space and custom domains on the roadmap. Really the two things most people, like me, care and want.

It's different because it uses blockchain (sia) to store your emails encrypted on the chain and delivers it direct to your devices, only your devices with your password can unencrypt your messages. So there's no traditional middle-man that can mine your data to do things like give you relevant ads. It's seamless with traditional mail so normal mail that gets sent to you gets encrypted once it hits Telio's server, otherwise it's complete end-to-end encrypted if you receive email from another Telios address.

It's a good deal to me because I like the roadmap and i feel potential, but I understand why people might knock the current version because - it's currently only on desktop, there's no mobile apps. Custom domains is not in yet, you can't change your password yet. If you compare the current version to other mail services, it lacks in features.

But these are the costs of progress if you are an early adopter and a better future is worth the price you pay today.

It's always great when users can see the vision behind the Tech. As you said we are still in Beta and have many more features to implement but we believe that the technology we are building today at Telios will be a staple of email in the future. Thank you for partnering with us to build the future of the Internet.
