## What counts as a forward?

- One text counts as one forward, however many destinations it goes to.
- Handing a text to email, another phone or WhatsApp counts too, because Fwrd still passes it on.
- A text that every destination’s filter skips doesn’t count.
- The count is kept on your iPhone and starts again at the beginning of each calendar month.

## Which plan fits you?

Pick by how many texts you forward in a month.

| How many texts you forward | Plan |
| --- | --- |
| Up to 15 texts a month, such as the odd bank or sign-in code | Free |
| More than 15 texts a month, such as a team’s shared 2FA number or delivery alerts | Fwrd Pro, $4.99 a month |
| More than 15 texts a month, all year round | Fwrd Pro, $29.99 a year (about $2.50 a month) |
| More than one filter condition on a destination, or a Never Forward list | Fwrd Pro |

## Fwrd pricing: FAQ

### How much does Fwrd cost?

Fwrd is free for 15 forwards a month, and Fwrd Pro costs $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year in the US, as of October 2026. Apple shows the price in your own currency on the App Store and handles billing.

### Is Fwrd free?

Yes, for up to 15 forwards per calendar month, to any destination, with no account and no subscription. The free allowance starts again each month and doesn’t expire.

### What does Fwrd Pro add?

Pro removes the monthly limit, allows more than one filter condition per destination, and adds a Never Forward list of words to always skip. Everything else, including all eight destinations, is the same on both plans.

### Do I need an account to pay for Fwrd Pro?

No. Fwrd Pro is an App Store subscription on your Apple Account, so there’s no Fwrd account, and Restore Purchases brings it back without one.

### How do I cancel Fwrd Pro?

Cancel it in your Apple Account’s subscriptions, like any App Store subscription. It renews automatically until you cancel.

### Are there per-message fees?

No. Neither plan charges per message. Apple, your carrier and the destination services may apply their own limits or costs.

## Billing

Pricing is displayed and charged through Apple's App Store. Apple supplies localized prices and handles billing. RevenueCat determines paid access from App Store purchase and restore status. Fwrd is accountless and does not charge a per-message fee.
