For Android
Your messages, sent where you want them.
Relay Pal forwards your texts, RCS chats, app messages and missed calls to the places you choose, using simple rules you set.
Android phones only
How it works
Sources, rules, destinations.
Pick where messages come from, say who should be forwarded, and choose where they go. Relay Pal does the rest in the background.
Choose a source
Texts (SMS and RCS), WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Messenger, Gmail or missed calls.
Set a rule
Forward from specific people, everyone in your contacts, or anyone at all.
Pick a destination
Send to another phone by text or MMS, to Telegram, to an email address, or to a webhook.

Rules and activity log
In control, and always able to see what happened.
Rules decide what gets forwarded. The activity log shows what did.
Simple rules
Forward from the people you name, from everyone in your contacts, or from anyone. Use as many rules as you need.
Activity log
Every forward is listed with what happened to it, and why a message was skipped, so there is no guessing.
Pictures too
Pictures sent to you are passed on to text (MMS), Telegram and email destinations.
No double sends
Relay Pal skips a message it has already forwarded through another source, and guards against forwarding loops.
Off switch
Pause forwarding at any time without losing your rules.
Debug report
If something looks wrong, you can share a report from the app. Nothing is sent unless you choose to share it.
Privacy and permissions
Why Relay Pal asks for what it asks for.
Relay Pal has no accounts and no servers of its own. Your messages go from your phone straight to the destinations you set up. Read the full privacy policy.
| Receive texts | So Relay Pal can see an incoming text and forward it. |
|---|---|
| Send texts | So it can forward to another phone by SMS or MMS. |
| Contacts | So it can show a name instead of a number, and apply rules such as "everyone in my contacts". |
| Phone state | Android needs it when sending longer, multi-part texts. |
| Internet | So it can reach Telegram, your email server or your webhook. |
| Notification access | Optional. Needed for RCS chats, WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, Messenger, Gmail and missed calls, which arrive as notifications. Skip it if you only want plain texts. |
Your rules, destination settings and the recent activity log are stored privately on your phone. Relay Pal does not include advertising or analytics.
