minus-squarePlasticExistence@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·10 个月前That was their old model, but this is a complete reimplementation of iMessage and requires no Apple ID, login details, etc. It’s E2E encrypted like all iMessage texts, and Beeper only knows that you have a message waiting, not the contents.

I stand corrected, thanks!
