Mailbird vs Wino Mail

Mailbird

• Windows users who want several email accounts in one desktop app
• People who would rather buy a license once than subscribe
• Keeping chat and calendar apps in a sidebar next to email

Wino Mail

• Windows users who miss the built-in Mail and Calendar apps
• People with up to three Outlook, Gmail or IMAP accounts who want a free client
• Those who prefer open source software that keeps mail on their own PC

Mailbird

• The free version covers 1 email account on 1 device and leaves out email tracking, app integrations and Exchange support.
• There is no iOS, Android, web or Linux version; the pricing FAQ says mobile apps are on the roadmap.
• Mailbird for Mac needs macOS Ventura or later and cannot connect POP3 accounts.
• Prices here are US Mac App Store in-app prices. Mailbird's website prices Premium in local currency, marked down from a crossed-out list price, and its figures can differ.

Wino Mail

• It runs on Windows only; the site lists no macOS, Linux, mobile or web version.
• The free app is limited to 3 email accounts. Removing the limit needs the Unlimited Accounts add-on, unless you build the app from source.
• Prices for Unlimited Accounts and Wino Intelligence are not published: the site says current regional pricing appears before payment.
• Wino Intelligence needs a Wino Account, processes the mailboxes you enable in the cloud and has monthly usage allowances.

Mailbird

Unified inbox

Messages and contacts from several email accounts appear in one inbox. The free version is limited to 1 account, and Premium allows unlimited accounts.

Email tracking

Shows who opened a sent message and when. The comparison table lists tracking as unlimited on Premium and not included in the free version.

App integrations

Slack, WhatsApp, Dropbox, Google Calendar, Asana and other apps open inside Mailbird, and Premium can add any app or website as a custom app.

AI email writing

A ChatGPT integration drafts email text for you. The pricing table lists it as a Premium feature.

Snooze and send later

Snooze takes a non-urgent message out of the inbox until later, and send later schedules a message for a set time. On Mac both are listed under Premium, along with undo send.

Unsubscribe and block senders

Unsubscribe from mailing lists and block unwanted senders from inside the inbox. The pricing table lists both as Premium features.

Wino Mail

Mail for Outlook, Gmail and IMAP

Connects Outlook, Gmail, iCloud and other IMAP/SMTP accounts, with linked accounts for a single view, mail filters, aliases, HTML templates, pinned mails and mail categories.

Calendar

Day, week, work-week and month views for Outlook and Google calendars through their own APIs, CalDAV for accounts such as iCloud and Yahoo, and local-only calendars kept on the device.

Contacts and To Do modes

Separate app modes manage contacts, with CardDAV sync, address books and favorites, and tasks, with lists, due dates, reminders and smart views such as My Day and Planned.

Offline use and local storage

Mail stays on your device by default and can be read, written and searched offline. Storage can be managed per account, and data can be backed up with password protection.

Customization

Themes with a theme editor, customizable swipe and hover actions, and keyboard shortcuts that can be set separately for each app mode.
