The call forwarding is actually the carrier-specific feature. If you have really got an iPhone on such type of a network that supports the call forwarding, you can configure it up very quickly and forward all of your incoming calls to a specific phone number. Here we explain you how to setup call forwarding on iPhone.

Not many people make an effort to use the call forwarding on their own iPhone but it seems a very handy feature if you’re busy and cannot attend the calls and would rather divert all those calls to a different number. If you’ve ever asked yourself how you can forward calls from iPhone to a different phone, it is very simple and actually too easy.

Nevertheless, before you get going, you will have to ask from your own carrier if they offer you this feature or not. Because few carriers will charge you for call forwarding although some really don’t. It is also specific to the country. So just before you begin, verify that details from mobile carrier. In any other case, it just does not work.

There are no other options to opt for or any tweak here. It is so simple plain but it is effective. You will find an indicator (like it is shown in the screenshot above) in the upper status bar near to charge indicator. This is actually a proof that your incoming calls will be forward to the specified number.

For the caller, there is a seamless transfer so nobody actually is aware of where the his/her call is actually going. For example, if you forward this to your own home number, callers would not know until somebody receive the phone at your house and informs them that you have actually forwarded the call. Moreover, if you in fact forward the incoming call to an incorrect number or a phone number which is no longer working, the callers will only think that your phone number isn’t working.
