Articles on: How to use the app

I’m still getting a lot of spam messages. Isn’t this app suppose to block them?

Control+ does not block emails directly, and we don’t access your email inbox for privacy and security reasons.


However, here’s how we help reduce spam and scam emails over time:


📉 We remove your personal information from data brokers — these are the companies that sell your email address and other data to marketers and, unfortunately, even scammers
🔍 We monitor the dark web to see if your email has been leaked in breaches
🚫 As fewer companies have access to your email, the volume of spam and scam messages gradually decreases
