If you’re referring to the history, then it cannot talk to the iCloud keychain, and even if it could, it would require your credentials. Same thing if you are just talking about incoming messages, they need your credentials. If they have those you’re already fucked. And also, they could just have taken an iPhone and log in there with your credentials.
- ceejayoz 3y agoIt's understandable Apple doesn't want third-party apps proxying Apple ID credentials. Ever.
- dadoum 3y agoIt isn’t proxying afaik, it is calling the Apple servers directly. The only thing getting to Beeper servers (and that can be disabled) is an IDS key without its matching decryption key, for Beeper to be able to see if messages are coming to signal the phone (which has the encryption key but is not connected continuously) to fetch it and show the notification.
- ceejayoz 3y agoAt the very least, it's being proxied through the third-party Beeper app, which Apple has no reason to trust. (Nor the Android device it's running on.) https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/11/beeper-mini-is-back-in-operation-after-apples-attempt-to-shut-it-down/ https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/11/beeper-mini-is-back-in-ope... appears to indicate more than that, though. > In tests, signing in with our Apple ID generated an Apple prompt that noted our ID was being used to sign in with a device “near Los Angeles, CA” (where we are not located.)
