## What is SMS Forwarder?

Read the texts that arrive on your other phone, right here on your iPhone.

Do you leave the work phone in your bag and carry only your iPhone? This app brings that phone's messages to you.

■ How it works
1. Install the "SMS Forwarder" app on the phone that receives the texts and set it as the sender.
2. Open this app and scan the QR code shown on that phone. If you cannot use the camera, type the 8-character code instead.
3. That's it. Messages arriving on that phone now appear here.

■ Features
· A list of the messages forwarded from the phone you paired
· A notification the moment one arrives
· Search through what you have received
· Choose how long to keep messages (7, 14 or 30 days) — older ones are deleted automatically
· Delete anything you do not need
· If you have paired different phones over time, each message shows where it came from

■ Messages are forwarded encrypted
A message is encrypted on the sending phone before it travels here. The key that opens it exists only on the two paired devices, so neither the delivery service nor we can read it. We do not store message content on our servers.

Received messages are stored only on this iPhone and are deleted automatically once your retention period passes. They also go away when you unpair or delete the app.

■ No ads, no purchases
· Free to use, with no advertising anywhere in the app.
· No account to create, and no email or phone number to enter.

■ What you need
· The free "SMS Forwarder" app on the phone that receives the texts
· An internet connection on both devices
· Camera access is used only to read the pairing QR code. No photo or video is stored.
· Allow notifications to be told the moment a message arrives.

Use this only to view your own messages across devices you own.
