Very buggy. Had a situation where the app was trying to forward old messages I received a long time ago. Ended up forwarding hundreds of messages before I stopped it! The filters which are very important sometimes disappear after you do an Update (you have to actually change a filter otherwise the filter as it exists is lost). Gonna try some more tests but I may have to look for something more reliable.

This app is awesome.. It does exactly what I wanted it to do, forward text messages to a different number. The set up was super quick and easy. I can't believe this is a free app.. It works great and is so simple and easy to use.. Very thankful for this app!!

It works great for forwarding that a call was received and see the contents of SMS text messages. You can also configure it to send events like power on/off, battery low etc. I am using it to forward these types of things to an email account.
