  4. Hi,

    I am planning to use the magic jack app in India using a wifi connection on an iphone. Will I still be able to make calls to the US for free? Also I am planning to set up call forward to that magic jack number so whenever someone calls me on my US number, it will forward the call to the magic jack number on my iphone which is active on wifi in India. Does this work? Any response is appreciated.
