Messages of yours on our servers. Not one

Clean by design

Everything you need from mail. Nothing in the way.

Threads that read like a conversation

No walls of quoted replies. Each message is a clean bubble, newest at the bottom, with the reply field docked right underneath — read, type, send.

Can you make Thursday 3pm instead?

Thursday works. Sending a new invite.

⌘↩ sent · 2:14 pm

Search that keeps up with you

Press ⌘K and search every account and folder at once — senders, subjects, message text, attachment names. The index lives on your Mac, so results don't wait on a server and work offline.

Every account, one clean window

Gmail, iCloud, Outlook, Microsoft 365, Yahoo or any IMAP server in one unified inbox. A colour ring on each avatar shows which account a message belongs to, and every account keeps its own unread count.

Sign in with Google or Microsoft Two clicks in your browser, on their page. bytemail never sees your password — only a revocable token, kept in the macOS Keychain.

Instant delivery New mail is pushed over IMAP IDLE the moment it lands, with native notifications and a Dock badge. A catch-up sync runs after sleep or a network change.

Newsletters that look right Designed mail keeps its layout, with scripts off and remote images blocked until you press Load Images.

A composer that stays out of the way Bold, italic, lists and text sizes, attachments by drag and drop, drafts saved as you type.

Smart tabs All, Primary, Updates and Promos, sorted on your Mac, each with its own unread count — plus an unread-only switch for a calmer list.

Real sender pictures Photos from your Mac's Contacts and brand icons from senders' own sites, with initials as the fallback.

Native, all the way down

Built in Swift, for the Mac, and nothing else.

bytemail is SwiftUI and AppKit from the first line. There's no browser engine bundled inside — far less to load and far less to keep in memory — so it launches quickly and scrolls smoothly. Notifications, the Keychain, the Dock badge and keyboard shortcuts are the system's own — it looks and behaves like it belongs on your Mac.

Credentials macOS Keychain

Private by architecture

We don't store your mail. We never even see it.

bytemail connects your Mac straight to Gmail, iCloud, Outlook or your IMAP server. There's no bytemail cloud in between — no messages, contacts, passwords or usage data on our servers, because there's nowhere for them to go.

No server of ours Your Mac connects to your provider directly. There is no relay, no sync host, no account to create with us.

Keychain credentials Passwords and OAuth tokens live in the macOS Keychain, read only at connection time.

Local index, local rules Search, smart categories and snooze run on-device. Nothing is classified in a cloud.

No analytics No telemetry, no crash pings unless you press Send on a report you can read first.
