- Beeper will be releasing an update to fix its iMessage on Android problem.
- The latest fix from the company will require users to have a Mac or have a friend on Beeper with a Mac.
- Users will need to have their Macs turned on regularly so registration data can be regenerated on a weekly or monthly basis.
After Apple started blocking Beeper’s iMessage for Android app, the Beeper team implemented a workaround that required users to send and receive texts via email. Since then, the company has come up with a new solution to its problem, but there’s a new downside.
On Reddit, Beeper announced it is getting ready to release an update for Beeper Cloud and Mini. Scheduled to launch tomorrow, the update will allow you to send and receive texts with your phone number again, but to do so, you’ll need a Mac or have a friend on Beeper with a Mac.
