About

Spam Text Blocker

Read full description

Filter unwanted texts with keywords you choose. Block specific phone numbers or number ranges, and keep exceptions for trusted numbers. Core protection requires a Premium subscription. Enable call protection and text filtering separately in iPhone Settings before using your rules. SMS FILTERING WITH YOUR OWN RULES Add words, phrases or senders you want to filter. Matching takes place locally on your device for eligible SMS/MMS from unknown senders. Filtering does not apply to iMessage or messages from contacts. BLOCK NUMBERS AND NUMBER RANGES Add individual numbers to your Block List or create a number-range rule. Keep trusted numbers on your Allow List, which takes priority within this app's rules and number library. Range-size limits apply; review broad rules carefully to avoid blocking calls you want. OPTIONAL NUMBER LIBRARY Premium also includes access to number-library blocking. Check the library status, download available updates, then enable and apply it. GUIDED IPHONE SETUP Follow the app's separate setup instructions for calls and texts. Check the setup status, save your rules and apply changes. Subscribing alone does not enable system protection. WHAT TO EXPECT Results depend on your rules, enabled library, iOS settings, and other apps or carrier services. The app does not identify every unknown caller or guarantee that every unwanted call or text will be stopped. Local app activity is not your iPhone's complete call or message history. PRIVACY AND ACCOUNTS Personal rules and local app activity are stored on this device. The app uses network services for guest sessions, membership, purchase verification, and number-library delivery. Message content is not sent for remote analysis. You can delete your app account in the app; this does not cancel Apple subscriptions. PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTIONS Downloading the app is free. A weekly or annual auto-renewable subscription is required to add blocking rules and use core protection. Review Apple's localized price and renewal period before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account subscription settings. Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription. Use Restore Purchases to restore eligible purchases.
