I can create email addresses that forward to other email addresses.

Likewise, can I automatically forward Facebook messages to either my email or phone?

  • If you're on Android or iOS, the obvious solution is to install the Facebook Messenger app.

    This answer was probably correct then, but as of late 2020 the first "Source" link is broken, and there is no "Messages" or "Forward Messages" where described (or anywhere else I could find).
