About Beeper
Beeper is an app that gathers conversations from many separate messaging services into one inbox. Its homepage lists supported networks including WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Instagram, Messenger, X, LinkedIn, Discord, Slack and several Google services, so people can read and reply from a single place.
The vendor says most connections run on the device itself, so messages go directly between the device and each network. Beeper is available on macOS for Apple silicon and Intel, iOS, Android, Windows and Linux, and conversations stay in sync across devices. Extra tools for managing an inbox include reminders and message scheduling.
The app is free to use, with an optional paid subscription called Beeper Plus that adds more advanced features. It is a proprietary, hosted product and not something to self-host. It suits people who juggle many chat apps and want one place to triage them.
