Before we get into activation steps and troubleshooting, let's see if your T-Mobile contract type allows for you to use YouMail.
For Prepaid users:
Unfortunately, most prepaid carriers, like Boost and T-Mobile, do not have the Conditional Call Forwarding feature enabled on these plans, which YouMail needs to work. We'd love to have you so we're upset too that your carrier places these limitations on you. If you are looking to switch carriers/plans, YouMail partnered up with Ting and we are now offering free $50 credit to Ting if you sign up through this link.
How to Activate YouMail on T-Mobile:
To learn how to activate YouMail through the app, please go to our How to Setup Call Forwarding with YouMail Help Center article.
If you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to submit a ticket or Live Chat us at support.youmail.com. We'd love to help you out!
