WordPress.com owner Automattic received a buzzer for multi-service messaging apps last year $125 million And say it will merge with texts.com, Early acquisitions in the same category. Now, Beeper will release its first redesign app for iOS and desktop after the merger.
Beeper said in a blog post that it built desktop apps from scratch using the Foundation and iOS apps of the Texts.com app. The company added that the new app is faster and has fewer battery capacity.
On X, Kishan Bagaria, founder of Texts.com explain While users can still use old apps, eventually, the company will provide an easy way to migrate to a new set of apps.
Currently, the application uses the buzzer cloud to store messages and credentials for other services. In the upcoming release, all this data will be stored on the device. What’s more, the new app will have encryption on the device for better privacy and security, and support multiple accounts associated with the same messaging service. Bagaria also mentioned that online, Mac apps will allow users to send and receive iMessages.
Beeper was founded by Eric Migicovsky, the founder of Pebble Smartwatch and a partner of Y-Combinator. After the acquisition, Migicovsky became the head of the spokesperson. However, last month, Mijikovsky announced He focused on building pebbles again.
