    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for using a smart device such as a standalone assistant-centric interactive speaker and/or a standalone assistant-centric interactive display with speaker(s) to send a message using a messaging application on a client device such as a smartphone. A method includes: receiving, by a first device, a request from a first user to send a message to a second user; determining that a messaging application corresponding to the request is unavailable on the first device; and in response to determining that the messaging application corresponding to the request is unavailable on the first device: selecting a second device on which the messaging application corresponding to the request is available; and sending, to the second device, a command that causes the second device to send the message from the first user to the second user using the messaging application on the second device.
