Why each limit exists

Each one is there to keep your Apple Account in good standing or to stop a mistake before it texts a lot of people.

1,000texts a day: Far more than one business sends, and low enough that a broken Zap can’t text thousands of people before you notice.
50new people a day to start: People you’ve never texted before. You can raise it, but texting many strangers is what gets Apple Accounts flagged.
500people per broadcast: Your Mac sends one text at a time, so a bigger list would take most of a day.
120API requests a minute per key: Well above what one Mac can send, and it keeps a runaway loop from crowding everyone else.
2,000characters in a text: Longer than any text people read on a phone. Send a file for anything bigger.
1Mac and one number: One account is one Mac and one number. A second number is a second account.

Why it costs less

BlueBot costs less because you supply the Mac.

Services that rent you an iMessage line keep Macs or iPhones running in their own racks, and the number people see is one they provide. Their plans run from $20 to $260 a month. BlueBot runs on your own Mac, signed in with your own number, so there’s no line to rent.

In exchange, your Mac has to stay on, with macOS Sonoma or later and Messages signed in, and your iPhone sends the green bubbles. The comparisons say what each other service does better.

BlueBot isn’t for

Anyone who wants to text people who didn’t ask to hear from them. BlueBot is not a bulk SMS gateway and has no cold outreach.
Anyone who needs a number they don’t own. BlueBot sends from your own number and provides none.
Anyone without a Mac that can stay on with Messages signed in.

Billing

Questions about billing.

The refund policy has the rest.

How does the trial work?

You start it with a card, and nothing is charged for 7 days. Cancel from your billing page before then and you pay nothing. Otherwise it’s $17.99 a month, plus tax where it’s owed. The refund policy says when we give money back.

How do I cancel?

From the billing page in the dashboard, which opens Stripe’s customer portal. You don’t need to write to anyone. You keep BlueBot until the end of the month you’ve paid for, and nothing is deleted until you delete your account.

Is tax included?

No. $17.99 is before tax. Stripe adds sales tax where it’s owed, based on your billing address, and checkout shows the total before you start the trial.

Do I pay anything per text?

Not to us. Every text goes through your own Apple Account and phone plan, so iMessage costs nothing extra and regular texts count against your phone plan the way any text from your iPhone does.

Can I use more than one Mac or number?

One account is one Mac and one number. To text from a second number, open a second account with another email address. Connecting a new Mac to an account disconnects the old one.

Can Apple shut off my account?

It can. Apple can flag or limit an Apple Account that texts many people who don’t know it, and no service that sends through Messages can promise otherwise.

BlueBot keeps you well inside normal use: texts go one at a time, 20 seconds apart by default; no more than 50 people you’ve never texted get one each day unless you raise it; anyone who replies STOP gets nothing more; and no account sends more than 1,000 texts a day. Use it for people who expect to hear from you.

Try it for 7 days.

Cancel from your billing page before the trial ends and you pay nothing.
