Would it be possible to allow users to use SQS in their own account? Check if .aws/config settings exist, try create queue, etc. and then you don't have to have everything going through one account, one region, etc. The Go SDK should take care of most of this for you.

I'm not 100% clear on the usage of SQS and SNS here so there may be reasons that isn't possible.

Hi Tim,

All communication over SNS and SQS is encrypted and signed by keys exchanged during pairing that only your phone and workstation know. This means that even if we wanted to, we could not read the traffic going through SNS or SQS.

Using different AWS credentials would require using the same credentials on the phone as well, so doing this would require a pairing protocol change. We don't currently see a strong need for this but we're certainly listening.
