iMessages is a very good application, but it is true that you may not use it much and when you receive messages in the application you can forget to open them. You may, on the other hand, receive many and leave some as unread to answer later. There is the real danger, being able to forget to answer any of them and then have a problem. Unreplied 2 is an application for Mac that will help you don't miss any message, including those read but not answered.
Unrplied 2 is an application developed by Italian andi hard intended for Mac and the truth is that we can consider it as quite useful. With it, you can keep all the Message conversations that you forgot to reply to. It leaves them in the macOS status bar, including iMessages and texts that you have already opened but have not yet responded to.
We talk about the second version of this program that was launched in August 2017 and during that year it was updated a couple of times. However, it was a bit forgotten or so it seemed to us. However its developer was writing the application again and now this new version has been released.
The best thing about Unreplied 2 is that accepts protocols for SMS and iMessage. So it is difficult for us to miss any important news received by those media. The program It is located in the Mac menu bar. In this way we always have it visible and at a glance we can see all the messages that we have received but that you have not yet responded to. We select the desired message that appears in the menu bar and then we click on it to open the Messages application in that conversation.
Do not worry about the security of this application regarding the access of Unreplied 2 to our messages because the Messages database in iCloud cannot be accessed. What it does is replicate unread or unanswered messages every five minutes, but this time can be changed and set the periodicity we want. According to the developer, the sandbox blocks network and file system access so the program cannot share the data even if it wants to.
