Beeper Mini, the app that lets Android users send blue-bubble texts to iPhone, is back on the Google Play store.
The app was rendered unusable over the weekend after Apple made some changes to iMessage.
Beeper called Apple's response "1984-esque" and says its app benefits both Apple and Android users.

Android users who are tired of the drawbacks that come with cross-platform texting can rejoice. Beeper Mini, the app that lets Android users send blue-bubble texts via iMessage, is back on the Google Play Store — with one major caveat.
