Beeper Mini is a full Android chat app designed for chatting with iPhone friends. With Beeper Mini, you are no longer a green bubble! When iPhone friends text you, your number shows up blue.
Hello Product Hunt!
I’ve been working on Beeper for 3 years now. Previously, I was a partner at YC and WAY before that I started a smartwatch company called Pebble.
Today, we’re excited to announce Beeper Mini. It’s our beautiful new Android app built specifically to send and receive blue bubble messages to friends with iPhones.
Beeper Mini has three major new features compared to our first generation Beeper app:
- Send and receive iMessages to your phone number, not only an email address.
- Beautiful new design, blazing fast speed.
- Full end-to-end encryption.
- Standalone Android app - no desktop/laptop required.
Available to download today, no waitlist. Get it on the Play store https://play.google.com/store/ap... try it out for yourself!
As soon as you install Beeper Mini, your Android phone number will be blue instead of green when your iPhone friends text you. It’s easy to join iPhone-only group chats, since people can add your phone number instead of your email address. All chat features like typing status, read receipts, full resolution images/video, emoji reactions, voice messages, editing/unsending etc are supported.
Beeper Mini is free to try for 7 days. After that, we charge $1.99 per month. Our business model is simple - we build a great app and earn money from those who find value in it. We feel that this business model aligns our success with your best interests. No ads. Complete data security and privacy.

Who hunted Beeper Mini?
Beeper Mini was hunted by Ryan Hoover. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
