[–] venusenvy47@reddthat.com 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I'm confused about this article because I have Beeper, but they make this statement: "Beeper Mini is a new app from the folks behind Beeper, a unified chatting and inbox app that brings together the best chat apps under one roof." I haven't heard about a mini version. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Apollo2323@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Its a new version they called Mini because it only supports iMessage natively. There is a research who reverse engineered how iMessage works that's how they manage to make it work without an Apple account and just your phone number. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] hamsterkill@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) Sounds like it's something Apple could easily kill by changing something in the protocol that would require it to be re-reverse engineered. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 1 point 2 years ago I'm not entirely sure if iMessage still works right now for phones that ran out of support, but such a change would kill it for those phones too. permalink fedilink source parent
