About Mailbees

Last updated: 2026-10-29

Mailbees is an end-to-end encrypted messenger for Android, iPhone and Mac. It is made by Pentabion Lab. You sign up without a phone number, and the server deletes every message once it is delivered.

The name

The product is called Mailbees; the site is mailbees.online. During development the project had the working name Bumblebee, and you can still see it in the bumblebee:// link scheme and in older pictures. Bumblebee and Mailbees are the same messenger.

History
