Beeper (and Sunbird, and others) up until today used a Mac server to sync messages. OP is describing an Android app that's natively talking directly to iMessage infrastructure, for the first time.

Sunbird was claiming they reverse engineered iMessage (either to maintain e2e encryption, or to just do stuff on device).

It looks like Beeper has actually managed to do the latter, which is really exciting!!
