Why sometimes I can and sometimes I can not answer?

This App read notifications through the API and can only access the possibility of answers (whatsapp) when no notification waiting on mobile.

When the notification is extended (as you can see in the mobile), then yes you can and gives the possibility and also stores it for the next time the same contact or send the same group further notice. So the app learns, but lost the data each time the phone is rebooted or the App is updated.
