Your use case

Let me know if I should open this up somewhere else, but I searched and couldn't find any issue about possible Wear OS support.

What would you like to do?

I'd like to be able to initiate sending messages using wear os on android watch.

Why would you like to do it?

Mainly to be able to send voice messages, and use element as a walkie talkie of sorts.

How would you like to achieve it?

I don't use Whatsapp, but it would be worth looking at their existing wear os app for the type of limited functionality they support.

Have you considered any alternatives?

NA

Additional context

NA

Are you willing to provide a PR?

Yes

Related: #1966. If we have quick reply in notification, I think we will also have it for free on Wear OS.

I can confirm quick reply already works fine, (as it does with other messaging apps like signal that don't have a wear os app). However creating new messages, viewing rooms, viewing unreads, is impossible.

I'm considering installing the whatsapp wear os app just to see what kind of bare minimum functions could be supported.

This could start very minimal.

To add more context, my impetus was that I really wanted to create a cross-platform star trek communicator... until I realized matrix / elements voice messages would work great for this.
