Features & Capabilities

SpamSMS blocks unwanted SMS and MMS and keeps your important messages front and center. It uses CoreML Identity Lookup to filter junk offline, with customizable rules based on keywords and numbers. Enable or disable any rule without deleting items, and enjoy a clean UI with an in-app walkthrough for quick setup.

Unknown senders are filtered, and notifications for filtered messages are silenced while they’re moved to the SMS Junk list. The app runs offline to protect privacy, ensuring your data stays on device.

User Reviews

Users largely praise SpamSMS for effective spam filtering and low-maintenance operation, with some reporting it remains reliable and straightforward. However, multiple reviews mention reliability issues over time, with the app sometimes failing to block messages even after purchase or upgrades. Keyword-based filtering is reported as sometimes not functioning, and navigation of Settings can be difficult. A few users request features (bulk keyword blocks, per-keyword actions) and improvements like ML capabilities or improved blocking controls. Overall, strong positive sentiment tempered by reliability and UX concerns.

Pros

Effective spam filtering that blocks junk texts (including political messages) reliably.
Reliable and simple to use, often working without constant babysitting.
Learns quickly by allowing keyword updates to block new patterns.
Apple Watch support (noted by some users).

Cons

Inconsistent performance over time; some users report it stops blocking after a period or after upgrades.
Keyword-based filtering doesn't always work; the add-keyword capability can fail.
Settings/controls can be hard to access or navigate.
Payment/upgrades issues; paid versions sometimes stop working or require repurchase.

Recent reviews

This is the only SMS spam filter I’ve found that actually works consistently. It keeps political texts and junk messages out of my inbox better than anything else I’ve tried. Every now and then a message slips through, but it’s rare — and when it happens, I just add a new keyword to the list and the filter catches them from then on. The only feature I really wish it had is the ability to add whole “word walls” or large blocks of text instead of entering each keyword one by one. That would make it even easier to stay ahead of spammers who change wording constantly. Overall though, SpamSMS is reliable, simple, and the only app that continuously works without me needing to babysit it. Highly recommended if you’re tired of constant spam texts.
