There are loads of cross-platform chat apps out there, with the likes of WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal all available on both Android and iOS. Unfortunately, Apple's iMessages app is still an Apple-exclusive service. But a new app promises to unify a variety of popular chat apps, including Apple's chat platform.
Beeper is the brainchild of Pebble smartwatch founder Eric Migicovsky (h/t: The Verge), and it promises to unify 15 messaging apps into one app on Android, iOS, Windows, MacOS, and Linux. The app also grants capabilities like unified search and the ability to set reminders.

The company adds that all of its bridges are open-sourced so you can verify the security of your data and have a look at how Beeper connects to each chat service (the client app isn't open source though). Nevertheless, you can press the button below to check out more info at the Beeper website.
