OnMyPhone

OnMyPhone is a remote call forwarding service that allows users to forward incoming calls from their regular phone number to their smartphone. It works by integrating with the user's existing phone service, utilizing either VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) or cellular connectivity to forward calls to the specified device.

OnMyPhone was developed by Hale Global, Inc. and was first made available to the public in the early 2010s. The service claims to provide a convenient and flexible way for users to stay connected with their business or personal lines even when away from their traditional phone or computer setup.

Features and functionalities of the service include automatic call forwarding, customizable greeting and voicemail messages, and the option to block certain phone numbers from forwarding. Some versions of the platform also support integration with other services, such as voicemail-to-email and online call logs.

From a technical standpoint, OnMyPhone requires a traditional landline or existing contract cellular service to function. The forwarded calls are routed through a virtual network interface using IP-based technology. This setup allows users to receive calls on multiple phone devices, including their smartphone, tablet, or home computer, depending on the chosen plan.

The amount of data used to place or receive calls via OnMyPhone has been reported to be quite low; typically, this is billed at standard metered or pay-as-you-go rates. Total amount of data usage is dependent on how frequently calls are made, expenses for roaming or international plans may be incurred if applicable to the user's set-up.

The advantages of OnMyPhone are convenience, flexibility, and the ability to provide users with a more secure telephone experience. By establishing constant connectivity OnMyPhone users receive keeps in touch with family or business segregated zones.
