Beeper has launched Beeper Mini, an Android app that enables iMessage functionality on Android devices. A high school student reverse-engineered iMessage, leading to the app's creation. Beeper Mini scans text messages, identifies iMessage users, and allows Android users to send messages with the blue bubble interface. The app does not require login details and does not access users' messages or Apple ID passwords. Beeper has made the iMessage code open source for transparency and security. This development comes amidst privacy concerns with other similar apps and Apple's move to adopt the RCS messaging standard.
