As Robin said, the only API we’re supporting initially is the ability to launch the messaging application to send a SMS, particularly via a sms: URL.The reason for that is simple: most of the relevant middleware is not yet written to offer any API guarantees, and we intend to change it quite a bit in updates going forward. We don’t have documentation, and couldn’t offer any promise that applications using those APIs would continue working after updates. >From my understanding, store applications are only supposed to use supported >API.

It is possible, and it will install and work without any modification to the device. It isn’t documented or properly supported, and it may change in incompatible ways at any time, for now. I realize that’s not ideal, but it’s still very early in creating a platform, and we need the flexibility to improve things. > I would be thankful for clarification on this issue.
