I was actually on the wait list for 306 days according to the email I just received last week informing me that I had been accepted into the early access program for the app. Just be patient. For how long?...I can't say, because it seems like some people have been on the wait list for way longer than me, but I was invited/accepted into beeper after 306 days on the waitlist. However I signed on to the wait list pretty early on just like I did for Sunbird, a competing app with the same exact features and purpose... Namely iMessage on Android. However Sunbird only has an Android app. I have found that beeper has been more reliable as far as specific features in iMessage like replies reactions and sending and receiving of media, typing indicators, and read receipts. As such, since I'm testing both apps, I currently use Sunbird with one of my iMessage accounts/Apple ID's, and Beeper with a newly created Apple ID, that I created simply to test beeper separately from Sunbird without causing the apps to interfere with each other when using iMessage functionality. Beeper is the only one that used to synchronize with iMessage on my iPad when sending iMessages from my Android phone, however, ths message synchronization feature Just went live in Sunbird recently as well....So it'll be interesting to see which company releases their app first for the general public.
Beeper is now free
