Talk freely. Stay close.

Veep is a messenger for the people you actually talk to. Chats laid out like a board, calls in one tap, stories that fade after a day, and secret chats only the two of you can read.

Everything in one place

All of your people, at a glance.

Veep shows your chats as a board of cards: photo previews, unread counts and who is typing, all visible before you tap. Then it gets out of the way so you can talk.

A chat board, not a wall of text

Masonry cards with photo previews, unread badges and live typing. Prefer a classic list? Switch in Appearance. Pin up to five chats to the top.

Audio and video calls, for two or eight

One tap to call. Group calls for up to 8 people, screen sharing on Android, and a call bubble that floats over your other apps. Calls are encrypted between devices.

Groups up to 100

An owner, as many admins as you need, invite links with a QR code, @mentions and “Seen by” on your latest message.

Stories with a soundtrack

Photos or 30-second videos that disappear after 24 hours. Add a song from a library of openly licensed music.

Voice messages

Tap the mic, talk, send. Listen back at 1×, 1.5× or 2×.

Polls, replies, reactions

Swipe to reply, double-tap for ❤️, edit for 15 minutes, and settle plans with a quick poll.

Disappearing and scheduled

Let a chat clean itself up, or hold send to deliver a message later.

Make it yours

Glass, colour, your way.

The Prism look puts frosted glass over a slowly moving glow. Pick light, dark or follow your phone, then choose an accent. Try it here.

  • Prism, Classic, Ink and Solid looks, with text size and board or list layout.
  • Verified badges for notable people and organisations, confirmed by Veep.
  • Smooth motion throughout: screens slide, sheets spring, badges pop.
Security, plainly

Private where it matters. Honest about the rest.

We would rather tell you exactly what is protected than paint everything with the same brush.

Secret chats

One-to-one text messages encrypted end to end. Keys stay on your phones; our server only ever sees scrambled text. Compare a security code to be sure.

End-to-end encrypted

Calls

Audio and video travel encrypted between devices (DTLS-SRTP). A relay, when needed, only passes encrypted packets. Matching emoji confirm nobody is in the middle.

Encrypted between devices

Everyday chats and groups

Encrypted in transit, but not end to end yet, including photos and files. We are working on extending end-to-end encryption to them.

How Veep protects you

Your history, your phone

Chats that open instantly.

Every phone keeps its own full chat history, so chats open at once and work offline. Our server holds messages for 30 days, just long enough for a new phone to catch up, then deletes them and their files.

Where your messages live
Server: 30 daysYour phone: the full history
Encrypted backupsSave your history to a file locked with your own password, and restore it anywhere.
App lockKeep Veep closed behind a PIN, fingerprint or face.
Low-data modeTiny blurred previews that load on a tap. Turns on by itself on a slow connection.
On-device translationOn Android, translate a message on the phone itself: private and offline after a one-time download.
My NotesA private chat with yourself for ideas, links and files.
