# Set up your call forwarding

> Redirect your business number to Ring Jenny with step-by-step call forwarding instructions for iPhone, Android, and landline or VoIP services.

## Forwarding Calls to Ring Jenny

Ring Jenny is always ready to answer your calls—but when she's on the clock is totally up to you. You control when Ring Jenny is active by turning **call forwarding** on or off for your business phone number. Forwarding your calls to your custom Ring Jenny number lets her **answer calls, respond to customers, and handle things on your behalf**—without changing your existing number. The Ring Jenny team will never interrupt your current service, and we'll always notify you by email before you get close to any overage charges. Read through the guide below to understand how call forwarding works and how to set it up for your specific phone provider.

***

## What Is Call Forwarding?

Call forwarding is when your phone sends incoming calls to another number automatically—like your Ring Jenny number. Once it's set up, your original business number stays the same, but Ring Jenny handles the calls in the background.

***

## Types of Call Forwarding

There are two main types of call forwarding:

* **Unconditional Forwarding** — Forwards **all** calls to Ring Jenny, immediately and automatically.
* **Conditional Forwarding** — Only forwards calls **in specific situations**:
  * **If busy** (when you're already on the phone)
  * **If no answer** (when you don't pick up)
  * **If unreachable** (when your phone is off or has no signal)

If you want Ring Jenny to handle **more than one condition** (like both *busy* and *no answer*), you'll need to set each one up **separately** using its own code. Not all carriers support conditional forwarding.

***

## How to Set Up Call Forwarding

Most carriers use special dial codes to set up forwarding. It will look something like this:

1. Open your phone's dialer (like you're making a call).
2. Enter the setup code **plus** your Ring Jenny number. For example: `**21*1234567890#`
3. Press **Call**.
4. You'll usually hear a confirmation tone or message.

**IMPORTANT:** Setup codes vary by carrier. Be sure to scroll down and follow the specific instructions for your carrier below to ensure Ring Jenny works correctly.

***

## iPhone Users: Turn Off Live Voicemail

If you're using an iPhone, be sure to turn off **Live Voicemail**. This feature can prevent Ring Jenny from receiving forwarded calls when you don't answer—especially if you're using conditional forwarding.

**To turn it off:**

1. Open the **Settings** app.
2. Tap **Phone**.
3. Tap **Live Voicemail**.
4. Toggle it **off**.

Ring Jenny works best when your iPhone isn't trying to screen or answer calls on its own.

***

## How to Turn Off Call Forwarding

To turn off call forwarding, you'll either dial a special code from your phone or disable it in your provider's app or settings.

* To disable **all forwarding**: dial your carrier's cancel code (like `##21#` or `*73`) and press **Call**.
* To disable **specific conditions** (for GSM networks like AT\&T and T-Mobile):
  * `##67#` disables forwarding when **busy**
  * `##61#` disables forwarding when **no answer**
  * `##62#` disables forwarding when **unreachable**

**Heads up:** Not all carriers support these specific disable codes.

* The codes above work for most GSM networks—like AT\&T, T-Mobile, and providers such as Cricket, Metro, and Mint.
* **Verizon and Boost Mobile** don't support condition-specific disable codes. Use `*73` to turn off all forwarding instead.
* **Google Voice, RingCentral, and other VoIP services** require you to manage forwarding in their app or website.

When in doubt, check your carrier's section below for exact instructions.
