Question 1

What is Fwrdly?

Accepted Answer

Fwrdly is an iOS app that automatically forwards your incoming SMS text messages to other platforms like Email, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, another phone, or any custom webhook. All processing happens locally on your iPhone for maximum privacy.

Question 2

How does automatic SMS forwarding work on iPhone?

Fwrdly uses iOS Shortcuts automation. You set up a 'When I Get a Message' trigger that automatically sends incoming texts to your configured destinations. Setup takes under 5 minutes and runs completely in the background.

Question 3

Which platforms can I forward text messages to?

Accepted Answer

Fwrdly supports 8+ forwarding destinations: Email, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, another phone number via SMS, and custom webhooks for integration with any API, Zapier, Make, n8n, or Google Sheets.

Question 4

Is Fwrdly free to use?

Accepted Answer

Fwrdly offers a free tier that lets you set up basic SMS forwarding. The Pro plan unlocks multiple simultaneous destinations, advanced scheduling, keyword filtering, and custom webhook support with a 3-day free trial.

Question 5

Are my messages private and secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fwrdly processes all messages locally on your iPhone. Your texts are never sent to our servers, never stored in the cloud, and never read by anyone. The app uses on-device processing and iOS Shortcuts for complete privacy.

Question 6

Can I forward messages to multiple destinations at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes. With Fwrdly Pro, you can forward each incoming SMS to multiple destinations simultaneously. For example, forward OTP codes to both your email and Telegram, or route customer messages to Slack and Microsoft Teams at the same time.

Question 7

Does Fwrdly work with OTP and verification codes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Fwrdly forwards all incoming SMS including OTP codes, 2FA verification messages, bank alerts, and delivery notifications. You can use keyword filters to forward only specific types of messages.

Question 8

How do I set up SMS forwarding on my iPhone?

Accepted Answer

1) Download Fwrdly from the App Store. 2) Add a forwarding destination (e.g., your email or Slack webhook). 3) Follow the in-app guide to create an iOS Shortcuts automation. That's it — messages will forward automatically from now on.
