Items to note

  • Forwarding to U.S. and Canadian phone numbers is supported. 👍🏽

  • We don't support forwarding calls to non-US/Canadian numbers, nor US territories such as Puerto Rico at this time. If you're located outside of the US or Canada, please use OpenPhone directly on your phone via the mobile apps (iOS and Android).

  • Any texts you receive while the forward function is on will still be sent to your OpenPhone App, not forwarded to your personal number. 

  • You can still make and receive calls directly from the OpenPhone app. No call forwarding required!

That's it! Enjoy OpenPhone. 🙌🏽
