Forward and Sync SMS

The app is designed to provide reliable and instant SMS forwarding through the use of a foreground service. This service is activated by the user and displays a persistent notification to indicate that SMS forwarding is active.

The foreground service is necessary to ensure that incoming SMS messages are processed and forwarded immediately, even when the app is not open. Without this service, there is a risk of missed or delayed forwarding due to Android potentially stopping or delaying message processing.

The foreground service is only started when the user enables SMS forwarding in the app's settings. It also displays a visible notification while active and can be stopped at any time by the user through the app or notification. Additionally, the service only runs while forwarding is enabled, making it essential for reliable real-time SMS forwarding.

In order for the app to function properly, it requires certain permissions. These include the ability to receive SMS messages for forwarding, use a foreground service for real-time forwarding, display status notifications, and restore forwarding after a device restart if enabled by the user.

The app only uses SMS messages for forwarding to destinations set by the user. These messages are transmitted securely to https://sms2mail.net for delivery to Email or Telegram. The app does not share, sell, or use messages for advertising purposes. It also does not collect contacts or unrelated personal data.

Users have full control and transparency when it comes to SMS forwarding. It must be explicitly enabled by the user and can be stopped at any time. The persistent notification clearly indicates when forwarding is active, and the foreground service only runs when necessary.

The app's privacy policy can be found at https://sms2mail.net/private_policy_sms2web.htm. It is important for the app to be original and SEO-oriented in order to provide the best user experience and ensure privacy for its users.
