Text messaging auto forwarding iPhone to iPhone
I have a work iPhone 5 I hate cause it's such a small little baby phone. I am used to my note 3, however since apple got on the phablet train finally I bought a iPhone 6 and turned in the note. Now I have a simple problem.
What I want: I want my iPhone 5 to automatically forward all of my texts to my iPhone 6. Text from people using both iPhones and androids. I already get work email on the 6 and calls are being forwarded.
What I don't want: Google voice, jail breaking, carrying both phones around all the time, relying on them both being connected to wifi.
I don't mind paying for text messages.......since I have unlimited like a normal person. I do not mind using an app. I thought the ios8 feature would work and it does except when my work phone gets a text from an android phone.
Final point, phones are on different carriers. Halp me out you beautiful genius peoples.

iOS 8 apparently has a forwarding feature in it:

So you'd just have to get the 5 onto iOS 8 and enable forwarding to the iPhone 6 and it should relay it over either cellular or wifi depending on which is available.
As I said this feature does work for iPhone text messages however if my 5 gets a text from an android it does not forward it to my 6.
SMS in October.
