How is this computed?

round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10) — computed 2026-09-03. Adoption (stars, forks) is never an input.

A Python library for interacting with Apple's private APIs, originally a proof-of-concept iMessage reverse-engineering project. It currently supports acting as an Apple device on the client side of Apple's internal APNs API to receive push notifications, with iMessage support being rebuilt.

Use cases

  • send and receive iMessages from Python
  • activate as an Apple device and receive APNs push notifications
  • reverse-engineer and experiment with Apple's private API surface
  • build custom iMessage bots or bridges
  • interact with Apple internal APIs without a Mac

When to choose

  • you need programmatic iMessage or APNs access from Python on any platform
  • you're researching Apple's private APIs and protocols
  • you're building a messaging bridge or bot for iMessage

When to avoid

  • you need a stable, production-ready library (the rewrite is unstable until 3.0.0)
  • you need a permissively licensed dependency (it's SSPL-licensed)
  • you want official, supported Apple API access
