User reviews
App does everything it says it does, highly recommend. I've been using it for nearly two years now. It's much better than carrying two phones. I think some of the negative reviews are free users... took me a while to realize that if you don't upgrade, the number of forwards is limited per month. Makes it appear to stop working. It's definitely worth the paid upgrade for unlimited use.

I'm giving it a two. App is not consistent. Sometimes it decides on its own to to forward and sometimes it does. Add to the fact that support is one guy on the other side of the world and you have not much to work on.

I want to be able to give a good review. However, until I can get it to work every time, I can't give a good review. It worked at first for about a day. All of a sudden, it just stopped. No error message. It would forward to email and my other number, then just stopped. There needs to be a quick contact for trouble shooting. I'm going to keep trying, but it's not looking good. Very few of these forwarding apps work. Android needs to add this feature in its OS yesterday.
