iPhone is considered as a revolutionary mobile phone. May be it’s too revolutionary that it lacks some very basic features (or Hidden). Some iPhone users complain about the absence of conditional call forwarding feature (which can be found in most basic mobile phones like Samsung, Nokia,etc). But it is right there only hidden from your eyes. There is 4 types of call forwarding:
1. Absolute Call Forward - All voice/data/fax diverted to another no.
2. Call forward if busy – Forward incoming call to another number if you’re on call.
3. Call forward if not answered – Forward the incoming call to another number if it is not answered for a predefined period of time.
4. Call forward if not reachable – Forward incoming call to another number if the phone is switch off or without signal.
iPhone allows you to setup absolute call forwarding to direct all calls to another phone number. However, it doesn’t provide any interface to setup “Call forward if busy” and other conditional call forwarding. Despite the lack of user interface on iPhone to activate conditional forwarding, you can use the so-called “Conditional Call Forwarding Code” to activate it.
Activate Call Forwarding
Activating Call Forwarding is easy just you need to know the simple conditional call code.
