About BEEM

What does BEEM mean?

BEEM means "Boost your Eyes, Ears and Mouth"

Do you guys have a XMPP groupchat room?

Yes. You can find us at . You can also find us on the IRC at the channel #beem on freenode network.

Why BEEM needs those crazy permissions ??

Here is a list of the different permissions used by BEEM

Permission Need
android.permission.INTERNET to access the internet connection
android.permission.VIBRATE to set vibrate on Beemç notifications
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE to stock the avatar datas on the SDCARD
android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE to check the connectivity status
com.beem.project.beem.BEEM_SERVICE Custom permission which will be used to allow other applications to use the Beem service

Common issues

I use a Google Apps account and I can't connect with BEEM !!! 

The Gtalk server use a non standard authentication scheme : they don't use the user part of the jid to authenticate but instead they use the full jid.
Starting to Beem-0.1.5 version, you can use an option in the advanced preferences to use the full jid to authenticate.
For previous version, if the domain part of your JID is not gmail.com or googlemail.com you have to enter in BEEM a jid in this form : @example.com
