What is my Convo number?

Your Convo number allows hearing people to call you through Convo Now. When someone calls your Convo number, you connect with an interpreter through the Convo Now app.

 

 

You can receive calls in two ways:

  • A hearing person can call your Convo number directly.
  • If you have a subscribed package, you can set up call forwarding so calls to your mobile number are forwarded to your Convo number.

How to Find Your Convo Number

Your Convo number is shown on the main page of the app.
