Tips and Tricks:

• Proton Mail uses end-to-end encryption to protect your emails. This means that only you and the intended recipient can read the contents of your emails.
• You can use Proton Mail's built-in encryption features to send encrypted emails to anyone, even if they don't use Proton Mail.
• Proton Mail has a built-in calendar and contact manager. You can sync your calendar and contacts with other apps and services.
• Proton Mail has a built-in password manager. You can store and generate strong passwords for your accounts.

That's it! With these steps, you should be able to set up and start using the Proton Mail iOS app.
