Beeper is throwing in the towel in its fight to bring iMessage to Android — mostly.
Although it just announced yet another fix to let Android users send iMessages from its messaging apps, Beeper announced that it’s going to stop finding workarounds and instead focus on its “long-term goal of building the best chat app on earth.”
“As much as we want to fight for what we believe is a fantastic product that really should exist, the truth is that we can’t win a cat-and-mouse game with the largest company on earth.”
Users can start using the app once they follow Beeper’s steps to receive their iMessage registration code — the only problem is that they’ll need to leave the iPhone plugged into power and connected to Wi-Fi at all times.
It’s releasing the Mac and iPhone app it uses to generate iMessage registration codes as well.
“The only potential reason they have left is that they might make less money selling iPhones if iMessage were available on Android.”
