Once you’ve installed Relay, you’ll see an option to create a mask on email fields and web forms. You can generate up to five email masks.

We don’t recommend using masks when you need your identity verified or for very important emails or those where you must receive attachments. For example, you’d want to share your true email address with your bank, your doctor, and your lawyer, as well as when receiving concert or flight boarding passes.

Auto-fill forms with a mask

The Relay icon will appear in the email field when you visit an online form. Click it to generate an email mask or to see a list of recently used masks.
