"Send Message" Google Assistant

[RhynoTech]

I was wondering if it would be possible to add VOIP.ms SMS app to the "Send Message" option on Google Assistant?

I've been using the app for awhile now and appreciate all your hard work and love the new features you've added. I'm now able to play and reply to incoming messages using Android Auto. I understand that making it possible to set VOIP.ms SMS as a default SMS app in Android would be to much effort for the purpose of this app. The only downside to that is I'm unable to initiate a SMS message myself handsfree.

Seeing as I'm able to reply to incoming messages I'm curious if a work around for this would be adding VOIP.ms SMS to the "Send Message" Google Assistant command. I'm able to use it for WhatsApp and Telegram both of which are not available as an option for default SMS app.

If this is not possible or to much work I understand, just thought I'd share my thoughts as this would complete the app for full handsfree operation using Android Auto.

I would like to see this implemented too so that I can use Android Auto and the Google Assistant to send text messages through my voip.ms number. There aren't any other clients around that seem to be able to do this, and because the phone doesn't have a SIM card in it, I can't use the Google Assistant to send a text, because it insists on using the built-in default messenger app, which fails.
