Beeper App Adds Scheduled Messages, AI Voice Transcription, and More with 'Plus' Subscription

Beeper, an app that brought iMessage to Android, is updating with improved privacy and a new "Beeper Plus" subscription. The subscription adds features like scheduled messages, AI voice transcription, custom app icons, and multiple accounts per network. The standard tier costs $9.99/month or $99.99/year, while the upgraded "Plus Plus" tier costs $49.99/month or $499.99/year. Users also have the option to sever cloud connections entirely for enhanced security.

Beeper, an app that once brought iMessage to Android, has announced significant updates focusing on privacy and new subscription features. The latest iteration of the app, which was acquired by Automattic last year, includes improvements to its privacy measures and the introduction of "Beeper Plus," a subscription service offering additional functionalities.

One of the most notable changes is the option for users to sever cloud connections entirely, allowing for end-to-end encryption directly on their devices. This feature enhances security by eliminating the need for Beeper Cloud, though it may limit compatibility with certain services like Slack and Discord [1].

The new Beeper Plus subscription introduces several advanced features. These include "Send Later," which allows users to schedule messages, "Reminders" to revisit conversations later, and "Incognito Mode" to preview messages without triggering read receipts. Additionally, AI voice note transcriptions are now available, even if the app itself doesn't support voice messages natively.

Custom app icons and the ability to use multiple accounts per network are also part of the Beeper Plus subscription. The standard tier costs $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year, while the upgraded "Plus Plus" tier costs $49.99 per month or $499.99 per year. The Plus Plus tier offers unlimited accounts and priority support, making it suitable for professional use [2].

These updates come as Beeper continues to test its redesigned app across iOS and Windows/Mac platforms. The relaunch aims to provide a more secure and efficient way for users to manage multiple chat services without the need for cloud intermediaries.
