The UI still sucks, though, because people ask me what the .ASC attachments sent with all of my emails are and if I've been hacked. When I explain that's for encryption, they may ask how to set that up on their phones if they care, but most of them just look at me funny.
I do use email encryption at my job, through S/MIME, and that works fine. Encryption doesn't need terrible UI, but PGP needs support from major apps (including webmail) for it to gain any traction beyond reporting bug bounties.
