It COULD work
Response from developer
Hi, You’re right that the old setup steps didn’t match newer iOS screens — that blocked a lot of people, and we’re sorry. We just shipped 1.4.3. On iOS 27 the in-app guide is a short wizard: add our ready-made shortcut, allow it once, then switch it on — no building it by hand. Setup copy is clearer in every language, and the Shortcuts action is named “Forward Message”. We also fixed empty messages looking like a successful forward. Please update to 1.4.3 and reopen the guide in the app. If anything still doesn’t match your screen, email smsforwarder.team@gmail.com with an iOS version + a Shortcuts screenshot — we’ll walk you through it. https://smsforward.app — SMS Forwarder team
Not worth it
Response from developer
Hi, Thanks for the honest feedback. Setup complexity and double notifications were fair hits. In 1.4.3 we made setup much simpler on iOS 27 (ready-made shortcut: add → allow once → switch on) and clarified the steps in every language. The action is “Forward Message”. Delivery reliability was also improved in recent updates (retries, clearer failure reasons, pausing a destination that keeps failing). Pricing: Premium is optional for higher limits — Weekly $4.99 (3-day trial) / Yearly $39.99 / Lifetime available on the paywall. If double notifications continue after updating, tell us which destinations you use at smsforwarder.team@gmail.com and we’ll dig in. https://smsforward.app — SMS Forwarder team
The instructions are not clear enough to use
Response from developer
Hi, Thanks for reporting this — mismatched instructions vs. the real Shortcuts screen were a real problem on newer iOS versions. Version 1.4.3 updates the setup guide: on iOS 27 you can add our ready-made shortcut, allow it once, and switch it on (no hand-built automation). Steps are clearer in every language, and the action name is “Forward Message”. Please update the app and open the guide again. If your screen still doesn’t match, email smsforwarder.team@gmail.com with your iOS version and a screenshot — we’ll help. https://smsforward.app — SMS Forwarder team
Wonderful
Good UI/UX and both good email and webhook support.
All free. Amazing, thank you devs!
