Jio, Airtel, Vi, and BSNL all provide call-forwarding codes, which enable users to redirect calls to other numbers. This is useful when your phone is out of reach or your battery is low, and you want incoming calls to be forwarded to another device or someone else's phone. Activating call forwarding is as simple as dialing a specific code on your device. If you need to know these codes, you're in the right place. Below is a list of codes to activate and deactivate call-forwarding on your Jio number.
How to activate call forwarding on Jio
Jio users can forward calls by either accessing advanced call settings or dialing specific call forwarding codes. Here are the codes for different call-forwarding scenarios for Jio.
How to enable call forwarding for all incoming calls on Jio
- Step 1: Open the 'Phone' app on your phone

You can also activate call forwarding for specific situations such as when you're busy on another call, when the other person has called several times already, or when your phone is switched off or unreachable due to low signal strength.
