TL;DR Summary

Beeper Mini, the app that promised seamless iMessage chats on Android, has come up with a new workaround after Apple clamped down on its core functionality. The new method requires users to have access to a Mac in order to send "registration data" from an Apple-made desktop or laptop. Beeper Mini's previous method used its own fleet of Mac servers, but Apple targeted this approach. The update for Beeper Cloud on Mac will generate unique registration data for individuals, making the connection more reliable. Users without a Mac can ask a friend to use their Apple computer for validation. Beeper is also open-sourcing its iMessage bridge and the Mac code for generating registration data.
