Beeper Has A Fix For Their Latest Issues …. But It Requires A Mac

Earlier this week, Beeper Minin was having issues, again, with their iMessage on Android service. As I type this, at least 60% of their users are affected. And like their last outage, you can thank Apple for Beeper’s issues.

Now fast forward to today. This Reddit post says that the company has a fix that is coming tomorrow. But the Devil is in the detail:

The fact that you need a Mac needs that you have to hop through a bunch of hoops to make it work. It’s not worth it if it were me. But if you really want iMessage on your Android phone, I guess you have to do what you need to do to get your fix.

I have to wonder how long it would take before Apple shuts them down again seeing as Beeper has basically telegraphed what they are doing so that Apple can figure out how to kill it. I also wonder how long Apple is going to play cat and mouse with these guys before sending in the iLawyers.

    Honestly………I hope Apple squashes these guys like the plague they are. Apple’s system is a walled garden AND they have every right to keep it closed to all outsiders……meaning non iphone users. There is no law in the world that states you need to make your proprietary software interoperable. BUY IPHONES PEOPLE IF YOU WANT A BLUE BUBBLE!!!
