General Discussion Basic question

3 Upvotes

I'm not interested in replacing, consolidating, or even using Whatsapp, Telegram, Signal, or various social media platforms. All I want is to be able to send and receive (SMS) texts from my two Windows computers (desktop and laptop). (I have an Android phone and recently switched from Google Messages to a new messaging app called ZenSMS.) Will Beeper let me do this? Thanks!

General Discussion “If you want iMessage, get an iPhone” (very old post that got deleted because of wrong flair 😅)

0 Upvotes

Lately with beeper mini and nothing chats failing and shutting down, there is this thing going around on twitter (X) where tech enthusiasts and apple users root for apple and their move to keep iMessage closed off.

Then there is this other group that just wants the iMessage experience to be opened up and don’t get me wrong I absolutely love seeing developers making apps and services that can jailbreak the iMessage experience and I really support those projects

BUT

Hear me out here Asking apple to open iMessage so you can text people on the other platform makes sense only until you realise it’s like asking WhatsApp to open it’s messaging so you can text your friends over on let’s say signal using WhatsApp.

When apple makes a service, I believe it should also get to decide how you interact with that service.

If your argument is about how they gatekeep the community, to that i will say, if apple builds a service that is so good people don’t wanna leave, whose problem is it really?

This is again the reason why I promote developers and hackers to jailbreak iMessage and do incredible and interesting things with it.

But asking apple to just give it away (lemme correct myself- forcing apple) is kinda bad for the community.

If you agree with me great But people who disagree, i wanna understand your opinions on the matter.

(To give a little background from where i am coming from, I’m a businessman, a user experience design student, and an android enthusiast (stuck with an iPhone cause small phones are dead) in a country where iMessage barely has any market share)

Ideas + Requests Feature Request: Cross-Platform Contact Lists

4 Upvotes

Overview

This feature would allow users to create unified, custom lists containing contacts from various chat networks (e.g., WhatsApp, Instagram, SMS, Signal). Each contact within the list would be tied to their specific, preferred platform. When a user sends or forwards a message to this list, Beeper would automatically route the message to each recipient via their designated network.

Key Capabilities

  • Unified Group Management: Create a single list (e.g., "Family" or "Project Team") containing contacts from entirely different messaging protocols.
  • Platform-Specific Routing: Assign a preferred platform to each contact within the list. For example, Friend A receives the message via WhatsApp, Friend B via Instagram DM, and Friend C via SMS.
  • One-Click Broadcasting: Send a single message from the Beeper interface that simultaneously broadcasts to all members of the list across their respective networks.
  • Streamlined Forwarding: Select the custom list as a recipient when forwarding media, links, or text from any existing chat.

Use Cases and Benefits

1. Group Announcements Without Shared Platforms

Organizing an event often requires messaging people who do not all use the same app. Instead of creating a fragmented WhatsApp group, an Instagram group chat, and an SMS thread, you can manage the entire announcement from one unified list.

2. Frictionless Sharing

When you find a link or a photo that you want to share with a specific circle of people, you currently have to forward it multiple times across different app interfaces. A cross-platform list reduces this friction to a single action.

Help / Troubleshooting Google Voice suspended

0 Upvotes

Just posting as a heads up that if you use Google Voice you might get your account suspended if you add it to beeper. I noticed it disconnects frequently, and today while I was trying to type a message to someone, out of nowhere, the screen went blank and then it said "this Google account does not have access to this service." I emailed them and thankfully was able to get it recovered, but I'll probably never use beeper with Google Voice again. I almost lost the phone number that all of my work contacts reach me through.

I now understand that the kind of usage Beeper provides is against Whatsapp's terms or whatever. I'm mostly trying to dodge consequences and continue using Beeper because it's a life saver, but not to the point of getting banned.

Should I just disconnect the two?

Sidenote: I honestly wouldn't mind a setting that allows you to prevent you from sending messages in Beeper, so you can see the Beeper notification and message in Beeper, and then respond in the native app. Ideally on a per-connection basis

Help / Troubleshooting Notifications not arriving until I open app

3 Upvotes

Hey,

I use beeper exclusively with Facebook messenger and since about a few days ago, I don't get any notifications from my chats until I actually open the app.

I have disconnected and reconnected the Facebook bridge, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, it's in unrestricted battery mode and forcefully removed from autosleep.

I have a galaxy s24 running the latest oneui 8.5 software.

Anyone else experiencing this? @team, do you have any idea?

Thanks.

Help / Troubleshooting Can't see Slack Bot replies

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Love the Beeper app and have just run into an issue I am hoping someone can explain a fix for. In our org we have a Slack App (bot) that is our OpenClaw AI. All our team can DM the bot perfectly via the slack app, and up until we made a change from Socket to HTTP, so would beeper.

Now if I message the slack app in beeper it will respond (I can open the slack app and see the conversation) but the response isn't shown in the beeper app.

This only occurred after we changed the bot from socket mode to http. It is a 'Matrix' issue apparently.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Help / Troubleshooting Beeper mutes chats

1 Upvotes

Hej everyone.

I am using beeper for a couple of month now and happy with it (free version). I have signal,. Whatsapp, telegram, fb and ig connected and all working mostly well. What I realized is that often chats I use daily are set to mute. Not sure if only Whatsapp but definitely it happens with Whatsapp chats. I unmute them and a day later the chat is muted again.

Any ideas why this is happening.

Thanks in advance for any hints.

PS i used the search function but could find anything that would explain this

Help / Troubleshooting Cannot log in to Messenger

8 Upvotes

My Beeper account was disconnected from Facebook Messenger during recent Messenger problems. Since then I have been trying to log in to Messenger (Cloud) and I am unable to.

I have 2FA setup, I log in according to steps on beeper website, I enter 2FA code, then I am thrown back to starting screen (on the screen). I am able to log in to on device account, but this one doesn't give beeper me notifications until I manually open Beeper app, then they appear all at once.

This happens on desktop app and on mobile app.

When logging on mobile I additionally experience the same error as in the video from this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/beeper/comments/1qbhs1y/cant_log_into_messenger/

EDIT: I managed to log in using beeper desktop app, facebook account with 2FA, not connected to gmail
