Orbeo is a messenger that does not need your phone number. Instead of a number there is a short Orbeo ID. Only the people you hand it to can find you: the app never reads your address book, never looks people up by number, and never suggests you to strangers. WHAT IS THERE Messages Quoted replies, editing and deleting on both sides, reactions, stickers. Read receipts and a typing indicator, as they should be. Photos, voice, video and files A photo opens full screen. Voice records two ways: hold the button, or tap once and keep talking hands-free. Double-tap the microphone, or swipe up from it, for a square video message from the front camera. Video and files up to 50 MB. Calls Voice and video, your own camera in the corner, switchable to the front lens. Connection quality is on screen: latency and jitter in milliseconds. On iPhone an incoming call is shown by the system, like an ordinary phone call. Groups and channels A group is for the people you know. A channel is for readers, with an address like orbeo.me/c/name and discussion under each post. Three languages Interface, dates and plurals in English, Russian and Kazakh. Everywhere Phone, tablet and computer — one account. WHAT IS NOT THERE No advertising. No third-party analytics and no tracking pixels. Nothing about you is sold or passed on for marketing. Registration asks for neither a phone number nor an email address. PLAINLY, ABOUT THE IMPORTANT PART The only spare key to an account is a twelve-word recovery phrase. It is shown once, at sign-up: write it down on paper. There is no phone number and no email to fall back on, and without those words nobody can return the account to you — us included. Orbeo has no end-to-end encryption. Traffic to the server is encrypted, but messages are stored on the server in readable form — which is what makes your correspondence appear on a new device right after you sign in. We say this outright rather than let you assume otherwise. ORDER Report and block are in the menu of every conversation. Reports are reviewed by a human; an account that breaks the rules is limited or removed. You can delete your own account in Settings, immediately and without asking anyone.
