Android
1. Open the Phone app.
2. Touch the Action Overflow icon
It usually looks like 3 vertical dots. On some phones, touch the Menu icon instead to see a list of commands.
3. Choose Settings or Call Settings
4. Choose Call Forwarding
Choose one of the following options:
Always Forward: All incoming calls are sent to the number you specify; your phone doesn’t even ring. This option overrides all other forwarding options. | Forward When Busy: Calls are forwarded when you’re on the phone and choose not to answer. This option is normally used to send a missed call to voicemail, although you can forward it to any number. |
Forward When Unanswered: Calls are forwarded when you choose not to answer the phone. Normally, the call is forwarded to your voicemail. | Forward When Unreached: Calls are forwarded when the phone is turned off, out of range, or in airplane mode. As with the two previous settings, this option normally forwards calls to voicemail. |
5. Set the forwarding number
