Do you ever find yourself overwhelmed with the sheer number of instant messenger and chat apps you need to use? Wouldn’t it be nice to have all your chats in one app? 
In this article, I share one of my favourite finds of the week — a website, tool or an app that has impressed me.
My Friday Favourite this week is Beeper – All Your Chats In One App.

Beeper is a unified chat app.
Thanks to Beeper, you can send and receive instant messages and chats with friends, family and colleagues on 14 different chat networks, all from within the one app.

All Your Chats In One App
I’ve written before about How to manage e-mail overload.
But, nowadays, email is just one of the many types of messages we are bombarded with each and every day.
Personally, I find it difficult to keep up with the inboxes across various different platforms.
On a personal level, it might be irritating to friends and family that you don’t respond to your Facebook messages promptly.
But on a professional level, there’s a certain expectation that you’ll respond to LinkedIn or Slack messages in a timely fashion.
The trouble is, to read and respond to these messages, you need to open up the application. Once you do so, you’re then often distracted by other content — such as status updates.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could read and respond to all your messages, across all platforms, in one application?
Beeper is a unified inbox for all your messages.
The Beeper app is available for Android, iPhone, iPad, ChromeOS, macOS, Windows and Linux.
Beeper supports the following messaging platforms:-
- Facebook Messenger
- Android SMS
- Google Messages (SMS/RCS)
- Telegram
- Signal
- Matrix
- Slack
- Google Chat
- IRC (Libera.chat)
- Discord
The messages in Beeper synchronise automatically, so you don’t have to worry about missing any messages.
Beeper is entirely independent, and the Beeper team share that they have no relationship to, or endorsement by, Apple, Google, Facebook, or any other of the supported chat networks.
The news that Beeper is joining Automattic means that there is no longer a wait list to join and use Beeper, and the product is entirely free to use.
In short, Beeper has transformed the way I manage my messages. It’s reliable and powerful.
