Does notifier work with the stock Iphone messenger app?

I can not get repeat alerts to work only for my messenger and was wondering do I need to add something to notifier to work with the Iphone stock messenger program.

Love the notifier audio alerts telling me I need to check phone, but need to get messenger alert to work since I text with a number of friends.

If I turn off messenger alert in settings I get no reminders, even thou I have notifier set up to alert every 2 minutes for 30.

If I turn repeat on in settings I only get the 2 reminders set up by apple even thou I have notifier set up to alert every 2 minutes for 30
