Q: Text Message forwarding....


Alright, I currently have an iPhone 6+ (personal phone w/ personal AppleID) and I also carry an iPhone 5s (work phone w/ separate AppleID). In the near future I will also be required to carry a third iOS device while "on-call". To mitigate how bad this headache will be; I'm trying to consolidate my current work phone w/ my personal cell. Both devices are currently updated to the latest iOS software. Is there a way to forward all text messages received to my work cell over to my personal cell automatically? If so, please provide some guidance.

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.2.1

    Text message is a carrier feature, contact your cell phone provider and see if that is possible.

     

    you could use this if you were using the same apple id for both devices Use Continuity to connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac - Apple Support
