Forward a text message

Can anyone tell me how to forward a text message from the iphone???

You know, for being the "phone of the century" it certainly lacks a lot of things regular phones have been doing for years.
Video
Pic Messaging
Backgrounds
etc...etc...
Hopefully they will include something in the next updates to address this, but it will most certainly cost A LOT!

    You could take a screen shot (hold and release both buttons simultaneously) and then email the resulting image to someone.
    // crude workaround for now...

  • Forward normal text messages to iMessage?

    As a Google Voice user, I've found that the experience on an iOS device is always lacking, mostly because the apps don't have the attention to detail that the Apple-designed apps have.  That being said, I'd like to know if there's a way to forward normal text messages (sent to my google voice number) to my Apple ID/iCloud account in order to have them show up in iMessage.  I'd imagine that there's some magic juju that goes on behind the scenes that identifies messages as normal SMS or apple's format, and routs them accordingly.  For the folks out there who have the ability to parse this sort of thing, is there a special way that iMessage handles messages (i.e. a specific/proprietary header, unique address, gateway, etc.), or is it just one of those things that goes on under the cover of night in dark Apple rituals?
    I appreciate the time and consideration!

    iMessage is, at this time, only iOS to iOS. There is no way, currently, to make a message from somewhere else appear to have come from an iOS device.
    In the Google Voice settings, under "Phones", if you tick the box saying "Receive text messages on this phone", the text will show up in the Messages app on the iPhone as a standard message.
    Best of luck.

  • Can I auto forward sms/text messages to another phone?

    I find myself in the unenviable position of carrying two phones and I need to have my main phone (iPhone 4) forward sms/text messages to my other phone (Samsung Infuse).
    After tinkering with the various setting on the phone, and trying to Google it for the past couple of days I haven't been able to find ANYTHING! 
    If anyone knows of any apps, settings, tips, tricks, or work arounds I would really appreciate it!
    Thanks,
    GBA

    Take a look at Google Voice. I use it so I don't have to carry 2 phones. One personal, one for work.
    It gives you a new number that you can direct to ring multiple phones simultaneously if you like. It will also handle text messages and forward them for you.
    Even if you're only going to carry one phone, this gives you a # you can have other people call without having to give them your personal #.
    There are other neat tricks you can pull with this. For example, it can display your GV # in the caller ID for incoming calls instead of the actual callers #. If you have a plan that gives you unlimited calling to specific #s, that means all those calls can be free if you add it to your friends/family/Alist/whatever they call it now.
    You can also set time restrictions so that it will only forward calls/messages during certain hours or to different phones at different times. When I'm working or on call, I get calls from the office. If I'm not, they won't ring through (they want me on call, they can pay me for it. lol)
    I don't know if it will be helpful for you, but it might be.  The service is free with cheap international calling rates.

  • Can I forward my text messages from my iphone to my email automatically?

    can I forward my text messages from my iphone to my email automatically?

    If you mean the settings for iMessages where you can specifiy an email address other people with iMessage can reach you at, that has nothing to do with email. The iMessage still goes to the Messages app and there is no way to autoforward from that app.

  • Is there anyway to forward a text message?

    Is there anyway to forward a text message or are there any applications that will allow me to do this? Also does anyone know if you can highlight text in either email or text and copy it to any section on the iphone 3G?

    Fantastic phone, so I'm assuming that Palm is working on a usable text messaging applcation to replace the limited version on the Pre.
    No forwarding
    No copy/paste
    Replies to the server address instead of the email address when the text is sent from [email protected]
    Goes out of messaging and into email to send to email addresses
    No way to change the alert to something that can be heard
    No f/u alerts to remind if a message hasn't been seen
    No way to see messages in a chronologic list instead of chat
    All the above sort of short circuits the usefulness of the keyboard
    Since this phone should be a messaging masterpiece given the hardware, it's suprising how poorly the application was written and hopefully fixing this will be a priority
    The current messaging application is made for fun but some of us use messaging for work
    In other words, why not copy the Treo application.....

  • How can I forward a Text Message / SMS?

    Newbie here trying to figure out workarounds for SMS forwarding. So far no luck with a first post to the board. Hoping someone can tell me what they do for this issue:
    SMS FORWARDING - I’ve been fighting this one for days now that I own the phone. My BB allowed me to forward as a SMS, Email or even a PIN (to an IM client). How can I do this with my new iPhone? Is there an app or trick I am missing?
    Thanks for your help.

    Lol - Technology these days! far to advanced for me!
    Scrap paper? who invented this? suppose it speeds up the process and is vastly superior to actually forwarding a text on any other mobile phone.

  • You can NOW MMS and forward your text message via MMS

    I just found an app called "Flutter". You can now MMS (well as close as you can get for now) to anyone just about. I used this to send to my wifes phone. All it is is a link is sent to the recieving person. All they have to do is click on it. No goofy odd passwords like viewmymessage does from AT&T. I see a lot of bad reviews on thier app page but it works for me. Take a snapshot of your text message or an existing picture in your iphone or once you open the app you can take a pic. Make sure whoever you send it to is in your contacts list. Works great to smartphone from an Iphone. Not sure about other non smartphones.
    (I just found this so if you already knew about it good. This is for people that didn't)

    support with my iphone 4s.after the recent update to iOS6, my phone sends my messages to other iphone 4s on my phone service plan and send others 'notes' contents to my phone.what do i need to do to stop this?

    There is no "un-sync".
    It may have meant to simply uncheck sync movies and sync, thus removing any movies from the iphone.
