There’s a new iMessage for Android app — and it actually works

And Apple will work tirelessly, and litigate endlessly, to stop this from happening.

I’ve been using Beeper for almost two years now on desktop to view my iMessages, discord, and slack all in one app, and Apple hasn’t said or done shit about it yet

That’s not the same. Beeper mini uses reverse engineering, beeper just uses Mac minis sitting in a datacenter somewhere.

Per the Beeper CTO, evidently Beeper (cloud) isn’t using the Mac minis anymore for anyone who migrated to their latest bridge. It’s using the same solution, they just didn’t make a big deal out of it at the time. I’ve actually been on the new bridge since early November and haven’t had any issues. In my case the new bridge fixed an issue I was having with SMS forwarding from my iPhone.

WOOOO! Great to know.

I read somewhere that RE for the sake of improving communications is allowed, or something along those lines.

Reverse engineering for the sake of ensuring compatibility. It’s not limited to communication.
