Jumbo: Privacy & Security - Your privacy assistant, by Sunrise co-founder

@simongabriel thanks! On our list. ;-)

Hi, @pierrevalade ! Is there any way one can get an e-mail or another kind of direct message when the Android version is out? I prefer not to follow on Twitter or anything like it; I only want to know when the Android version is released.

@pierrevalade @niklaspivic666 Following. I would also like an email for notification. Please add this to your website.

@simongabriel Good news! We have released an Android version for Jumbo :)

@rrhoover thanks Ryan! excited to share the launch with the PH community too. long-term, we simply want to build the best privacy assistant, which works for you (and not anyone else). i think of this as your digital agent, similar to a lawyer in the real world, who represents you and make decisions in your favor, because it's incentivized to do so (ie: you will pay for it at some point). you don't need to study law in order to be well represented in court, you need a good lawyer, and that's a fundamental principle of our judiciary system. (hopefully, Jumbo is more accessible to a great number of people than great lawyers are, because we're building software). long-term, there is great brand value to always make the right decisions for our users. for example, it's really hard work to make everything work client-side for Jumbo, (we don't have any servers processing your personal data), but it's worth it, so that over time (not today), people will trust the Jumbo brand to provide them with more services to defend their privacy online. short and medium term, it's always about building the best product, and the best team (we're hiring btw, email pierre@jumboprivacy.com if you want to build Jumbo) more philosophically maybe, I think the concept of being represented by a smart agent is something super cool: https://twitter.com/pierrevalade...

@pierrevalade Love the way you are looking at it, people will definitely need services like this. A smart assistant seems like a great way to go about it. Congrats on your launch Pierre, I look forward to seeing where you take it!

@danirogerc you mean support for gmail? cleaning your old emails from Google servers?

@stewartjarod we can't make Jumbo as a web app. the reason we launch on iOS is that we're a small team, we can't do both. it's on our list.

@pierrevalade I totally understand small teams and resource allocation, I'm just an iOS first hater :D.

@stewartjarod @pierrevalade Why can't this be a web app? Couldn't a web app have at least some subset of the functionality?

@stewartjarod Good news! We've put out an Android version :) Please check it out!

@larry_gast yay! thanks for following up! :D

@devesh_prabhu We've actually released an Android version. Let us know what you think :) https://play.google.com/store/ap...

@fisch0920 !

Thanks for your feedback! We had some issues with our initial release, and we've just released a new update that should fix all of them: https://download.jumboprivacy.com - let me know how it goes!

@amrith thanks Amrith. Good question: on Twitter we are working on a similar feature than Smart Privacy for Facebook. Our Smart Privacy feature for Twitter will manage settings for you to protect you and save time. If you download the app and accept push, we’ll let you know when the feature is live

@austincmarshall yes Austin! we are working on a new UX for that specific issue, which I 100% agree with you. thanks for the friendly reminder :-)

Thanks for the nice words! We've released an update that fixes the issues: https://download.jumboprivacy.com

There are Android handsets that cost more than iPhones. Urgh. I get annoyed by this notion that everyone who prefers Android devices is poor or cheap. Many people simply prefer a mobile OS without the training wheels.

Yes, I also need this app for android. Jumbo App

@mygreg that’s nice to start your day with such nice words. The team did a great work. Thanks to them!

@luikohl thanks! we are going to ship one update a month with each time new apps supported and more features for existing apps! Next update: early May.

@ianissoawesome 1/ we are going to open source some of our stack so we can be audited independently 2/ premium versions yes 3/ later this year we are hiring great Android engineer email pierre@jumboprivacy.com if you’re interested ;-)

@stvmcg at the moment things are working fine. we are only doing things that the user would be able to do anyway.

@rhaivimies Rhai! thanks

@johnnyxbell cleaning means "delete from Twitter, BUT first save a private copy (accessible in the Memory tab in the Jumbo app, and soon to your Dropbox/iCloud" does that help Johnny?

@pierrevalade Yeah it does help, thank you! I don't want to delete any of my tweets, but the facebook, google and alexa options are really really good. Nice product.

@phrystile I have the same same question. I just want to delete the tweets entirely, but the app forces local backup. Doesn't appear to be any way to delete that local archive other than deleting the entire apps. The app is awesome otherwise though!
