Can I forward calls to voicemail when my phone is offline?
Yes, you can forward calls to voicemail even when your Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge (or any phone) is offline, such as when it is turned off, out of battery, or out of network range.
Your carrier typically provides the “Forward When Unreachable” feature to accomplish this.
When enabled, if your phone becomes unreachable due to being offline, it automatically redirects calls to your voicemail.
This forwarding setting is managed at the carrier/network level, so it works independently of your phone’s power or connectivity status.
You can usually enable this via your phone’s call forwarding settings or by dialing specific carrier codes.
Additionally, many carriers allow you to configure or manage call forwarding remotely through online portals or customer service, ensuring calls go to voicemail even if you don’t have access to your phone.

By following the easy steps above, you can customize when and how calls get diverted to voicemail, making sure you never miss a message.
