No account, no sign-up. Codes reach Slack, email, WhatsApp and more as they arrive. Fwrd walks you through setup with a ready-made shortcut. 15 free texts every month.
Fwrd automatically forwards text messages from your iPhone to Email, Slack, WhatsApp, Discord, Telegram, Microsoft Teams, another phone or iMessage, or your own webhook. Set it up once and every matching SMS is passed on as it arrives.
FORWARD VERIFICATION CODES
Get one-time passcodes and 2FA codes where you actually are: a work Slack channel, a family WhatsApp chat, your inbox, or a second phone. Great for shared accounts, team logins, and codes sent to a phone you don't carry.
CHOOSE WHICH TEXTS GET FORWARDED
Filters decide which texts reach Discord, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Telegram and webhooks: only texts with certain words, only texts that look like a verification code, or only at certain hours. Check any filter first with Try a Text.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Add a destination in Fwrd.
2. Add Fwrd's ready-made shortcut and set up its Message automation in Apple's Shortcuts app. Fwrd walks you through every tap.
3. New texts that match are forwarded automatically, even while your iPhone is locked.
Email, another phone and WhatsApp send through their own Shortcuts actions, with Fwrd handing over the text. Discord, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Telegram and webhooks are sent by Fwrd directly from your iPhone.
WORKS WITH ZAPIER, MAKE AND N8N
Point a webhook at Zapier, Make or n8n to send each text on to Google Sheets, Notion, or any other app.
SEE EVERY DELIVERY
Activity shows what was forwarded, where it went, and anything that failed.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account and no Fwrd servers. Texts go straight from your iPhone to the apps you choose, and your forwarding history stays on your iPhone. Forwarding needs your iPhone to be on and online.
FREE AND PRO
Forward 15 texts a month for free. One text counts once, even when it goes to several destinations. Fwrd Pro removes the limit.

• Guided setup now works on iOS 26 too: Fwrd sets up forwarding with you, using a ready-made shortcut.
• Shorter setup: one short line per step, and the pictures and videos show the taps.
• On iOS 26, the step-by-step guide now says to tap Create New Shortcut after Next, so it no longer stalls there.
• Ready for iPhone Duo: Fwrd fits the screen folded or open, and keeps your place if you fold it mid-setup.
• Easier to read at the largest text sizes.
• The setup's test text no longer uses one of your 15 free forwards.
