Before We Start

  • Is it possible to forward someone's text messages to your number?
  • Can a text message be forwarded secretly without the person knowing?
  • What is the easiest way to read someone's text messages on Android smartphone and iPhone?

If these are the questions whose answers you are looking for, you can find detailed solutions as well as simple steps here.

There are times when it becomes necessary to forward someone's text messages to check them secretly. For example, parents want to secretly monitor the text messages on their kid's phone, and the same is applicable to suspicious spouses and employers. The act of forwarding text messages can be useful for those having multiple phones and phone numbers.

We will illustrate how to forward a text message on Android smartphones and iPhones.

How to Forward a Text Message?

If your objective is to forward a text message only, you can manually forward any text message from the target phone to any phone number. In fact, you can forward a text message through email as well. The drawback is that you cannot do it secretly as you have to get physical access to the target person's phone.

Here are the steps to forward text messages on Android smartphones and iPhones.

1. Forward Text on Android

Here are the steps on how to forward a text message on Samsung Galaxy smartphones as well as any Android smartphones.

Step 1: Open Messages app on your smartphone.

Step 2: Tap on the conversation that contains the text message which you want to forward.

Step 3: Tap and hold the target text message to select it and tap on three-dot icon and select Forward Message option.

Step 4: Select the contact number where you want to forward the text message and tap on New Message option.

If you want to forward someone's text messages automatically to any phone number, you will need to use a third-party text message forwarding app. However, most of these apps can be easily detected by the person whose text messages you are forwarding. He can uninstall the app and stop automatic forwarding. That is why we recommend KidsGuard Pro for Android app which we will discuss later.

2. Forward Text on iPhone

Things are easier for iPhone users when it comes to forwarding text messages automatically. iPhones come with text message forwarding option to send text messages directly to another number. However, Apple allows text message forwarding among devices that are signed into the same iMessage account. Here are the steps on how to forward a text message on iPhone.

Step 1: Open Settings app on the person's iPhone whose text messages you want to forward to another number.

Step 2: Tap on Messages option and tap on Text Message Forwarding option.

Step 3: Select the devices to forward and receive text messages. If cellular network or Wi-Fi network is turned on, new incoming text messages are sent to the selected messages.

You can see that you cannot forward text messages to anyone's phone number but only to phone numbers that are signed into the same iMessage account. That is why you need to use a third-party text message forwarding app secretly for iPhone as well and we recommend KidsGuard Pro for iPhone app.

3. Forward Text to Email

If you want to forward your text message to email, it is better to use a third-party app that will automate the process. For Android users, "Auto forward SMS" is useful to forward text messages to email. For iPhone users, "GV Connect" is the app to forward text messages to email address. However, when you use a third-party app, the target person is likely to know it as the app does not stay in stealth mode like KidsGuard Pro for Android and iOS.

How to Forward Someone's Android Text Messages without Them Knowing?

The answer to the question, "can a text message be forwarded without the person knowing" is yes. You have to use a third-party remote monitoring app that stays hidden on the target phone and forwards the text messages automatically to its web server. You will be able to see the text messages from web portal of the web server remotely from your device.

We recommend KidsGuard Pro for Android app to forward someone's Android text messages without him knowing secretly and safely.
