How can I forward calls from my usual phone number to CaptionCall Mobile?

Call forwarding lets you automatically send calls made to your usual cell phone number to your CaptionCall Mobile app instead, so you can enjoy captions on all incoming calls on your phone.

Many CaptionCall Mobile users set up call forwarding so they don’t have to give their new CaptionCall Mobile number out to old friends, companies, and other contacts.

With call forwarding, calls to your mobile phone number will automatically ring in the CaptionCall Mobile app!

To set up call forwarding, you dial a special code in your “old” cell phone dialer. CaptionCall Mobile makes this easy by pre-filling the special code you need to dial.

You only need to set this up once, and it will work for all incoming calls. You don’t need to do it for every call — once you’ve got it set up, it’s automatic!

Quick Start!
