Android SMS to Telegram Forwarder Setup

What you need

• An active TG Auto Forwarder account with the SMS add-on.
• An Android phone.
• The Telegram chat that will receive the messages.

Step 1: Get the official app

Download the Android app from the official link shown in your dashboard. Do not install an APK from another website. Unofficial copies can ask for access they should not have.

Step 2: Sign in and add the phone

1. Open the app and sign in with your TG Auto Forwarder account.
2. Accept the SMS terms when asked.
3. Add the phone as a device and give it a clear name.
4. Signing in issues the device key for this phone. Keep it private.

Step 3: Grant access and test

Allow the SMS access the app asks for. Then send a test text from another phone and check that it reaches your Telegram chat. The footer shows the device name, so keep names clear.

Step 4: Add your rules

Match on the sender or the text, choose contains, exact or starts with, and set forward or block. The first matching rule decides. See how rules work.

Privacy and keys

• Keeping text can be turned off, and you choose the retention period.
• Blocked texts are not stored or sent.
• Revoke a phone from the dashboard if you lose it or stop using it.
• Rotate the key if you think it has been exposed.

Troubleshooting

• No messages arriving: check that the app has SMS access and that the phone is online.
• Key rejected: sign in again, or rotate the device key.
• Some texts missing: check your rules. A block rule that matches first will stop a text.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Android app safe to install?

Install it only from the official link in your dashboard. Sign in with your own account before you add a phone.

Can I use iPhone and Android together?

Yes. Each phone is added as its own device with its own key, and each can be managed separately.
