iPhone
AES-256 encrypted on your iPhone before it's sent, never stored. Forward SMS, OTP & 2FA to Email, Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack or your own API - set up in 5 minutes.
Never miss a text again! SMS Forwarder automatically forwards every SMS you receive to email, Telegram, WhatsApp, your favorite messaging platform - or straight to your own API. No manual copying, no missed messages.
Built on Apple Shortcuts, SMS Forwarder runs as a native iOS automation. The moment an SMS arrives on your iPhone, the shortcut triggers, applies your forwarding rules, and routes the message to your chosen destination. Once it's configured, it runs hands-free!
FORWARD YOUR SMS TO:
Email - receive every text directly in your inbox, automatically
Telegram - route messages to yourself or a group via a dedicated Telegram bot
LINE - receive your SMS on LINE via the SMS Forwarder official account
WhatsApp - forward texts to a WhatsApp contact or number of your choice
Slack - pipe incoming SMS into any Slack channel, instantly
Discord - deliver texts straight to a Discord channel
Microsoft Teams - send incoming SMS to a Microsoft Teams channel via webhook
Custom API - NEW! Send every incoming SMS as a JSON POST to any HTTPS endpoint you control - your server, your automations, your rules
KEY FEATURES:
Custom API destination - each text is delivered to your endpoint as a clean JSON POST, ready to parse and automate
Forwarding rules - create rules that map specific senders or keywords to specific destinations
AES-256 encryption - every text is encrypted on your iPhone before it's forwarded, and never stored
Built-in test message flow - verify your setup works before relying on it
In-app Shortcuts onboarding - a step-by-step walkthrough gets you configured in under 5 minutes
Native Apple approach - works entirely through Apple Shortcuts, using iOS the way it was designed
Personalized experience - Personalize your SMS forwarding experience for your own needs
Keyword filtering - Add filtering keywords to only forward messages that are necessary
HOW IT WORKS:
Install SMS Forwarder and open the app
Follow the in-app guide to set up an Apple Shortcuts automation on your iPhone
Add a forwarding rule - choose your destination (email, Telegram, LINE, WhatsApp, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams or your own API) and set any filters
Send a test SMS to confirm everything is working
Most users are fully set up in under 5 minutes.
PERFECT FOR:
Travelers, expats and dual-SIM users - land abroad, switch to a travel eSIM, and still see every text sent to your main number: OTPs, bank alerts and delivery updates follow you on any device, in any country
Developers and technical teams - point the Custom API destination at your own REST endpoint and every SMS arrives as structured JSON - trigger pipelines, log messages, feed bots, or integrate with internal tools
Business owners and solopreneurs - receive client texts in Slack, Teams or email so nothing slips through while you're heads-down
Anyone managing OTPs and 2FA codes - auto forward verification codes to email or Telegram so they're always within reach
Frequent SMS forwarders - stop copy-pasting texts manually; let the automation handle it every time
SMS backup - Backup and save all your important SMS messages in your email or desired destination
PRIVACY:
SMS Forwarder uses Apple Shortcuts to access your incoming SMS details so you have full control over which messages get forwarded. Every message is encrypted with AES-256 on your iPhone before it's sent, then delivered only to the destination you chose - we never store your message content.
