To keep Beeper Mini running, Beeper uses a Beeper Push Notification (BPN) service to connect to Apple's servers and notify you of new messages.

And it uses Apples gateway service for setup.

    Yes. I did mention APN (Apple Push Notifications) to Beeper Push Notifications which then routes via FCM for Android. The whole setup does require active server cost + time to work on the app to bring it to parity with iMessage Features.
