Beeper's all-in-one messsaging app relaunches with an on-device model and premium upgrades | TechCrunch
Briefly

Beeper has relaunched to enhance security and features, removing reliance on its own cloud services. The app now offers premium tiers for enhanced functionality, including the ability to connect to more accounts, power-user features like reminders and incognito mode. Acquired by Automattic, Beeper integrates multiple messaging apps and aims to simplify chat management while ensuring privacy through end-to-end encryption. Users can now choose between the existing cloud connectivity or direct messaging network connections.
"That ensures that end-to-end encryption is preserved and your privacy is as good as the official app," Bagaria told TechCrunch in an interview ahead of the app's relaunch.
"The overall goal, according to Automattic, is to simplify the problem of having too many messaging apps to keep up with, while also keeping those chats secure."
