So there is this app claiming on-device iMessage functionality on Android. Seems cool but only has subscription based pricing. Does anyone know of a way to circumvent this?
Edit: I found this but it seems a bit dodgy

Iirc the entire app is open-source, you can prob strip out the subscription parts and build it yourself
The original work/PoC they based it off of is PyPush and that definitely has a GitHub here: https://github.com/JJTech0130/pypush
If you can’t/don’t do the work, you’ll have to wait, something will come along eventually but that app just came out the other day
That’s just the proof of concept, there is a lot of work and infrastructure besides that code. You can read a more in depth explanation of how it works on their blog

Yea I know it’s a PoC, It’s work, but not that much work…if you have the skill set lol
I was actually digging into JJTechs project a bit, I’m planning on building something of my own, but my version is going to try to tap into Androids messaging service instead so that I can use any SMS app I wish.
The idea being my service will be a translation layer of sorts instead of an independent app that I have to switch too.
It’s SSPL, so source available, not open source.
This is great news, thanks!

No, Beeper apparently paid the dev to use the code.

Fun fact, that dev is still a High School student apparently.
Was supposed to be 16 years old.
Wow, good for them!
