Frequently asked questions
How does PhoneLeash work?
PhoneLeash runs on your phone and automatically forwards incoming text messages to your email or another phone number. On Android, it also forwards MMS, WhatsApp, and lets you reply from email. On iPhone, it uses Apple Shortcuts to forward SMS and iMessage texts to email.
Is PhoneLeash free?
PhoneLeash offers a 30-day free trial with all features — no credit card required. After the trial, plans start at $0.99/month for OTP-only forwarding, or $4.50/month for full SMS forwarding.
Can I reply to forwarded texts?
Yes, on Android. If you forward to email, simply reply to the forwarded email. If you forward to another phone, text your PhoneLeash phone with 'tls' followed by your message to reply to the last sender. Either way, the reply is sent as an SMS from your original number. Not available on iPhone due to iOS limitations.
