The HushMail application will be a multiplatform mobile application that may be used with FDroid, Googles Android, iOS, Linux Desktop and Windows Phone. HushMail will focus on mailing between users at extreme privacy. It will also contain wallet like features although that isn't the purpose of the application. It will use Hush litewalletd server that syncs with the hush daemon. To connect from the device to a litewalletd server, we will use hush wormhole. The individual is able to have its own litewalletd server or may use a random server picked by logic at HushMail startup.

HushMail will focus on ease of use for discussion. The discussion is the focus and the wallet is only used for critical tasks. Some inspiration and examples are CashApp, HushChat, Dukes HushList and Telegram.

HushMail Prototype

The prototype will provide focus on creating one screen called the "creation screen" and present the logic to create a wallet or import a WIF to the mail application. It will be built and tested with Fdroid only and only include the dark theme. Having this baseline of functionality shows we have a working hush wormhole and imported all needed libraries to expand on other hush functionalities.
