A few days ago, the mobile app Beeper Mini went back into operation after an attempt by Apple to shut down its service that brings iMessage’s blue bubble texts to Android users. Now, Apple is again targeting Beeper’s users, the company claims in a post on X, by “deliberately blocking iMessages from being delivered to ~5% of Beeper Mini users.” But this time around, Beeper says it has a fix for the problem: simply uninstall and reinstall the app.

It also noted it’s working on a broader fix for this issue but it’s not ready as of yet.
