Photon SMS Integration
Yes - Mobile Message does integrate with Photon!
This gives your team a practical way to reach people who use different messaging channels. An incoming iMessage can prompt an SMS acknowledgement, while an inbound SMS can send an iMessage from your server. The two channels remain separate, but Zapier can pass the message details between them and help staff respond from the system they monitor. Photon’s Send Message action makes the outbound iMessage visible to the recipient, and Mobile Message’s Send SMS action handles the text message side.
A Zapier account and subscription is required for this integration.
Please view Zapier's pricing page for further information.

Yes. Photon’s New Message Received trigger can start a Zap, followed by Mobile Message’s Send SMS action. Map the relevant message details and recipient number in Zapier to send a plain text response or notification.
Can an inbound Mobile Message text create an iMessage reply?
