SMS divert

[MooKangaroo]

I know there is a way to set up call divert to another number, but is there a way to set up auto divert of SMS messages?

Not without an app which needs to be on the phone you want to divert from and it needs to be on all the time.
I use an android app called sms forwarding.

You can install O2 Ask on any number of phones and all messges sent to your O2 number can be read and replied to on any phone. It doesn't actually forward them to another number but it does allow you to carry ust the one phone, with the added bonus of working over wifi.

That sounds like it'll do the trick. Thank you for the reply.

O2 Ask i think is now replaced with My O2 and you can't access texts in My O2 as far as I can see?

MyO2 has always been there but no one really knows the reason for O2 Ask?

O2 Ask is not listed in the Google play store to download.

I wouldn't worry about it.
