PieMessage is a multi-component system that lets Android devices send and receive Apple iMessage messages by relaying them through a Mac. It consists of an AppleScript sender, an OSX client that watches the Messages app SQLite database, a Java socket web server, and an Android client app.
Use cases
- send imessages from an android phone
- text iphone users from android
- use imessage without an iphone
- bridge imessage to android device
- relay imessages through a mac server
When to choose
- you own both a Mac (with iMessage enabled) and an Android device
- you want a self-hosted, DIY iMessage bridge you can inspect and modify
- you are comfortable running a Java server with a public IP and editing configuration in Java source
When to avoid
- you want a polished, production-ready messaging app - the project is explicitly a super alpha prototype
- you do not have access to an always-on OSX machine with a public IP and iCloud account
- you need guaranteed reliability, security hardening, or ongoing maintenance - the project is largely dormant and unlicensed
