What people use it for
One app, one job: every SMS that reaches the phone goes to the email addresses you chose. These pages show how to set the rules for the situations people write to us about.
Forward SMS from one SIM only on a dual-SIM Android phone
On a dual-SIM Android phone, Resender can forward a sender's SMS from one SIM only: each rule listens on the SIMs you pick, and the catch-all row covers both. How to set it up, and what the phone-calls permission is for.
SMS from a parent's or a child's phone in your inbox — helping someone who does not read their messages
A parent who misses every SMS, a child's first phone, a relative you help with appointments: Resender on their Android phone sends the SMS they agree to share to your email. How to set it up openly, which senders to forward, and what stays private.
A spare Android phone that emails you its SMS — a second number without carrying a second phone
Keep a SIM in a spare Android phone at home, plugged in and on Wi-Fi, with Resender on it: every SMS that number receives reaches your email in seconds. What the phone needs, how to set it up once, and how to keep it running for months.
Receive SMS from your home SIM while abroad — without roaming
Leave your home SIM in an Android phone at home with Resender on it, and every SMS it receives arrives in your email wherever you are: no roaming, no second phone in your pocket, no missed messages while the SIM is out of the phone you travel with.
A work number the whole team reads — SMS from one phone to several inboxes
A shared number on one Android phone with Resender sends every SMS to the inboxes of everyone who needs it: the office, a shop, a small practice, a service desk. Several recipients, rules per sender, and a mailbox everyone already has — no new service to manage.
