Hate tons of useless spam texts? Lost money on a text message scam before? Do you receive messages from interlocutors from whom you do not want to receive messages? - These problems are not only with you but also with millions of other users. According to research, more than 120 billion spam messages were sent in the last year in the US. Most of them are sent to sell you unnecessary items at an inflated price, spend your money in a casino, or sniff out your account access and get your savings. But we have a solution! Spam text killer - designed to protect you from spam, save you from scams, and make your life much less noisy. And yet - none of your messages will leave your phone. We do not use external services and do not forward your messages. All checks will be made exclusively on your device and no data leakage is possible. Automatic message checking All incoming messages from unknown numbers are checked for signs of spam, scam, fraud. If such signs are found, the message ends up in the junk iMessage folder. Thus, you always have the opportunity to review the filtered messages, but at the same time - they will not distract you. Preconfigured checklists. In addition to the basic check, we also check each message for signs of promotional messages, manipulation, etc., and also move them to the junk folder. You can always individually adjust the level of verification at your discretion or block absolutely all messages from unknown numbers. And what to do with annoying numbers? If you are worried about some annoying sender - you can always add his number to the block list (don't forget to remove it from your contact list - ios does not allow you to process messages if the number is in your contacts list). Customize the words you want to block. For example, someone mentioning "cow" or "hammer" is not spam, but you do not want to receive messages containing these words. Then just add them to the block list. And if it is very important for you not to miss a message, for example, with the name of your child - add his name to the allowed list, and all messages with this name, regardless of the rest of the content, will go to the inbox. Enjoy the silence in a spam-free world.
