Understand your letters – the app for your mail
Take a photo of a letter and Letterbe tells you in plain words who sent it, what it's about, what you should do and by when. Explained simply, translated and read aloud if you like.

Letterbe is coming soon to iPhone, iPad and Android phones and tablets.
How it works
Three steps, no manual needed. Letterbe takes the pain out of official jargon – you stay in charge.
The scanner finds the edges and straightens every page, even for long letters. PDF files, such as an invoice from an email, work just the same.
Letterbe tells you who sent the letter, what it's about, what to do and by when. Sender, amount, deadline and IBAN are detected.
Add deadlines to your calendar with a reminder in a single tap. For organisational replies, Letterbe prepares a draft; you check it and send it yourself.
What Letterbe does
Bill, official notice or a note from school: Letterbe pulls out what matters and helps you deal with it on time.
Understand
Letterbe sums up every letter in plain words. What you need to do, how much and by when is right at the top – no officialese.
Explained simply
If you like, Letterbe explains the letter in simple language. While it reads aloud, you follow along: the sentence being spoken is highlighted, like a subtitle.
In your language
If a letter is in a different language from the one your app uses, Letterbe translates it and reads it aloud in your language. Ideal if you are still learning German – or get mail from abroad.
Get it done
Letterbe collects all deadlines in one place and adds them to your calendar, with a reminder, in a single tap. You see at once what is due this week.
Images: app screens in the German version with sample letters (fictitious names and companies). Letterbe is available in 9 languages.

Stays with you
Letterbe is built so that as little as possible leaves your device – and nothing without your say-so.
Start right away. No email address, no password, no customer account.
Letterbe stores letters, photos and deadlines on your device, not on our servers. To move to a new device, use the encrypted backup.
Text is recognised on the device. If that ever fails, Letterbe asks before sending the photo.
Detected account numbers are masked automatically before analysis.
The detailed analysis runs only with your consent, in real time on secured servers in the EU, and is not stored. Without consent, Letterbe works in basic mode on the device.
Lock the app with Face ID or fingerprint. Backups are encrypted with your own password.
Letterbe only captures letters addressed to the names you entered.
Export your letters as PDF and spreadsheet or as an encrypted backup.
All details, including which services are involved, are in the app privacy policy and in the FAQ.
Fair from the start
Honest, clear and no catch – that's how an app for your mail should be.
If your subscription ends, all saved letters remain readable and can be exported as PDF and spreadsheet.
3 new letters a month with all letter features – simple language, translation, read-aloud and deadlines included.
You can manage a second person's mail in every plan, including the free version.
Your subscription works on all devices with the same Apple ID or Google account, and also via Family Sharing on Apple devices.
Letterbe never sends anything or makes payments on its own. You check and send replies yourself.
No account, no ads in the app and no analytics tool tracking you.
Important: Letterbe explains what a letter says. Results are generated automatically and may contain mistakes; the original letter always prevails. Letterbe is not legal, tax or financial advice, does not calculate statutory deadlines and is not a government service.
