### 4/5 — Notification not working?

*2026-08-28*

First I love love love this app for letting me connect with people without using SNS apps, it has saved me a lot of time.

I just noticed that notifications deliver late — usually for about an hour and even up to half a day — unless I open the app. I’d appreciate it if they arrive on time without having to open the app!

### 4/5 — IG without the reels

*2026-08-24*

This is THE app on iOS to keep the DMs from IG without having to get on the app and be exposed to the rest. It works flawlessly except for one minor nitpick, and it’s sending videos. I do understand that handling large files in an app is always a complex from a development point of view, and from what I gather, Beeper uses the IG Web’s API which can be limiting. From my personal stress tests, keep your videos to about 30MB and you should be good. Also be careful of batch sending as well.
Aside from that, I enjoy using this and the devs are active with updates!

### 4/5 — People Typing

*2026-08-17, version 4.3.0*

Please provide an update that shows when people are typing.

### 4/5 — Its okay

*2026-08-12, version 4.3.0*

Add iMessage, then it'll be perfect

### 5/5 — Screen Time Helper

*2026-08-07, version 4.2.10*

Great for replacing instagram since I can get all my DMs without reels

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2026-08-05*

Works really well only thing I would change I had trouble signing into LinkedIn via google clicking button didn’t do anything had to use email

### 5/5 — Please dont ever get rid of this app

*2026-08-04, version 4.2.10*

I will genuinely pay for the code to it. Oh my goodness gracious this app is amazing. PLEASE keep it going. Or sell the code if you dont feel like keeping it up. It is genuinely amazing and such a great app i dont have words. My only wish, for kids with strict parents, can you maybe add a calculator function? so that way you cant see messages without typing in the numbers? Or have a hidden folder thats impossible to access or even see without typing in certain things?

### 4/5 — Massively Improved

*2026-08-04*

I’ve been a user since the very beginning but gave up as I found the UI too clunky. Decided to try again and WOW what a difference. Absolutely incredible design and seems much more stable now. I only wish Apple would open up to enabling iMessage, or at least SMS to be able to add those chats and then it would be perfect. Overall though this is a really well maintained and useful app for bringing multiple message accounts together.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! Our team worked hard to get the app to where it is today, and we're continuing to work to make Beeper even better. We appreciate your support!

### 5/5 — great app

*2026-08-03, version 4.2.10*

this might just be the answer i was looking for to my phone addiction

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-01*

Too good , but please bring calls to the app , and polls and stuff

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-07-28, version 4.2.8*

Awesome, this saves me a lot of time switching apps!

### 5/5 — This is the answer

*2026-07-27*

I have tried a bunch of apps to get me to stop scrolling and there are some good ones that still let me see posts, but they are so hard to access for messages (by design). This solves it, I get the best of both worlds and can separate my real actual social life on insta. Nice UI and I can still see what they are sending me. Perfect 😁👍 Will recommend

### 5/5 — Good try to fix instagram addiction

*2026-07-26, version 4.2.8*

This app is on the right track to fix our instagram addiction. So far the quality is amazing.

### 5/5 — thank you

*2026-07-23, version 4.2.7*

no complaints, if you managed to get snapchat on here it would be amazing

### 2/5 — cool concept but

*2026-07-20, version 4.2.7*

YOU CANT DO POLLS OR SEE ALL MEDIA PPL SEND YOU OR USE CHAT FEATURES :(

### 5/5 — Underrated App

*2026-07-17, version 4.2.7*

This app needs to be in more people’s hands

### 1/5 — Error

*2026-08-19*

Atualizou, parou de integrar com o zepp e parou de funcionar as respostas de WhatsApp no amazfit.

**Developer response:** Beeper doesn't currently support wearable devices like Amazfit watches, and Beeper isn't affiliated with Amazfit. If your watch mirrors phone notifications, you'll still get basic Beeper alerts there, but nothing beyond that for now. Reach out anytime with questions!"

### 1/5 — Makes you change Instagram

*2026-08-18*

Instagram detects it’s a third party and will ban your email making you change it if it detects Beeper. Had to change email 3 times.

### 1/5 — ᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ

*2026-08-01*

フィンランドから不正ログインされて無理

**Developer response:** Hi there! Some of our servers are located in Europe and in the US. If you're using cloud connection, it is possible for Beeper to show up as being a login from those locations. Hope this clears things up!

### 1/5 — This app is very good!

*2026-07-18*

The issue I am having and the reason for 1star is so it can come to the attention of developers, that I am experiencing constant “ban” or blocked by the apps, I connect my WhatsApp, and Instagram and Messenger and then on the official app I get blocked and loads of drawback I can’t use the app or even do anything until the restriction is lifted… is there a way for you guys to solve it ? Many please and thanks!

**Developer response:** Hey there! Could you please reach out to us at help@beeper.com? Happy to take a look at this.

### 1/5 — Prompts WA lockout

*2026-07-17, version 4.2.7*

I have a lot of hope for this app, but in the week after installing I got locked out of Whatsapp three times and FB once. Once that gets fixed I'll love this app!

### 1/5 — 인스타그램이랑

*2026-07-10*

계속 연결이안됨

**Developer response:** We'd love to help! Could you send a bug report via Settings > Report a Problem?

### 1/5 — Won't show all of my messenger chats

*2026-07-08, version 4.2.5*

This has potential but it loads some new and a bunch of really old messenger chats and the ones I use most don’t show up at all. I've tried to reconnect and I've also tried the app on my iPad abc the desktop Mac app. Same issue. I can’t use it.

### 1/5 — So bad it’s caused bugs on mobile

*2026-06-12, version 4.2.3*

The Beeper desktop app is just bad. What’s worse is it seems like development on it is causing the mobile app to rot.

I recently had my pins for discord disappear from mobile. The reason was apparently cause I hadn’t opened the desktop app in months. Cause I don’t want to. It’s janky devolves into being a massive resource hog.

Beeper’s desktop and mobile apps are hitting a point where they’re almost worthless, regularly requiring you to have to open the chat app you hoped Beeper would replace. Want to get rid of discord or facebook messenger, too bad you’re not gonna with Beeper they’re not remotely close to even being in feature parity form a text perspective. Want to send a gif, it makes little sense to use either of Beepers apps where it just plain sucks to do it vs others. Facebook messenger used to be great on the service, now I can’t get it to work cause I want use messenger with a disabled Facebook account. I think you can do, could do in beeper, and they removed the function of.

You’d think Beeper being based on Matrix would mean it has decent support for that? Nope. It’s abysmal, arguably the worst client you can use for Matrix in how much of Matrix’s basic chat functions aren’t supported.

I’m starting to feel like when Beeper manifested they knew they’d never achieve a universal chat app and that’s why they sold to Automatic so quickly.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-05-08, version 4.1.25*

Not a useful app.

### 1/5 — Too glitchy

*2026-05-05, version 4.1.24*

Not good

めちゃいいアプリですね。
最近は、メッセージ以外に余計な機能のあるアプリが増えてきました。

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-08-21, version 4.3.1*

Best app to end notification chaos

### 5/5 — Vk messenger

*2026-08-21*

Отличное приложение, пользуюсь постоянно, очень удобно все мессенджеры в одном приложении. 
У нас в России не хватает ещё, чтоб можно было подключить vk messenger и Max messenger. Не планируете сделать? Думаю прибавилось бы много пользователей из России.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear this! We're looking to resolve the crashing issue in the next update.

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2026-08-19*

Cet app a sauvé mon temps d’écran !!!

### 5/5 — The best chat app

*2026-08-18, version 4.3.0*

I can’t live without this app. Makes navigating all my friend groups and chats so much simpler.

### 5/5 — Great to distance from social media!

*2026-08-16, version 4.3.0*

I have been trying to reduce my Instagram use by putting screen time limits, but DMs were always important for me to maintain. Beeper lets me keep my DMs even without the instagram app which is a great use case that is unadvertised. Love this app, works perfectly as expected!

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-08-12, version 4.3.0*

Life changing, please download.

### 5/5 — One app to rule them all!

*2026-08-10, version 4.3.0*

I love this app and so happy to use it everyday. I felt like I spent my days switching between messenger, signal, and whats app and it’s been so nice to unify those chats. I also have loved connecting Instagram so I get reels and messages in beeper which has helped to lower my screen time on socials. Love love love

### 5/5 — Saved me from Doomscrolling

*2026-08-10*

I’ve been so annoyed because every time I open instagram to reply to messages I end up doom scrolling. I tried downloading Meta’s messenger but it works terribly and doesn’t actually send things from your same instagram account, it was a whole mess. Beeper has a clean interface and perfectly syncs my instagram chats. Sending posts also works wonderfully, sometimes you don’t even have to actually click on the link itself since beeper transforms the post into an image. Amazing app!!

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2026-08-08*

Such an amazing initiative i so wanna pay the pro just to support the mission, getting us out of social media and doomescrolling, too bad that the memberships are too expensive, unfortunately most messaging apps are free forever which doesnt give us the incentive to pay, maybe if there was something for 25£ peryear, there would be more people paying
