What are the limitations of integrating via notifications? That seems like the user-respecting method. For example, I don't use iMessage or SMS, but WhatsApp.

I'm just guessing, but notification suggests you could respond to an incoming message but maybe you can't initiate an outgoing message?

Haven't looked into this, but along with that:

- Multiple replies

- Edits

- Scheduled send

- Voice message

- Tapbacks

- Message history

- Message order is reliant on notification order

- Delays in the notification system could be different than the messaging system

- Opaque nature of message going from notification system -> messaging system, difficult if message is lost/not sent with no indication of why
