How call forwarding works
Pick a number to forward
Choose which Twilio number should forward, and where to, your cell, a landline, or both.
Choose forward or simring
Forward calls straight to your phone, or ring the app and your phone simultaneously so whoever answers first wins.
Calls reach you anywhere
Incoming callers dial your Twilio number and reach you on the device you chose, no app answer required.
Unanswered calls fall to voicemail
If nobody picks up, the call rolls to voicemail, which can be emailed to you as an MP3.

Call forwarding FAQ
Can I forward my Twilio number to my cell phone?
Yes. Set a forwarding number and incoming calls ring your cell or landline instead of the app, configured per number.
What is simring?
Simultaneous ring rings more than one destination at once, for example your cell and a landline, and whoever answers first takes the call.
Can I ring the app and my phone at the same time?
Yes, simring can ring the app and your forwarding number together, or you can forward only and leave the app idle.
Route your Twilio calls your way
Set forwarding and simring per number in the web dashboard with your own Twilio account.
