Political Spam messages

I think this app has helped reduce the number of texts I am getting from political parties asking for money. Opting out of the spam doesn’t work. They just use different phone numbers from which to send the same messages, and they are rude and demanding. Unfortunately the filter has let some messages through even though the rules are already in place.
It makes me wonder if there is a more foolproof app available. But I am going to stick with this for a while as I am gettting only two spam texts a day, when it was more than a dozen before this app.

I would love to see feedback on how many spam texts have been rejected.

It’s perfect

If you’re looking for an app that can get rid of all those annoying, sexual, or just random messages from numbers you definitely don’t know or got pulled into a group text featuring links to who knows what which causes your phone to go off like crazy because people keep responding to said texts then this app is for you. I’ve used it for over half a year now and it’s served me well. Just make sure to add words or the “suspicious” similar phone numbers you keep getting texted by and bam it all goes the text spam folder. No noise, no problems, nothing. And over time it’s stopped which is awesome. I do have a suggestion though, making a email spam hound app to stop spam messages from getting around your filter or better yet prevent them from even sending emails would be amazing. None the less get this app and you won’t be sorry that you got it. Thanks for your help spam hound!

Only one that actually works

Set up the same as anti-spam email accounts which is also rare to find. I think it is my live account that offers anti spam rules. Set rules in this app signifying text to omit. The program flags messages with those key words and files into a second list. The only time you have to acknowledge those is to delete them. Sad the report feature doesn’t always work. Also it is rare that the sender phone number is legitimate anyhow. Very few end up marked as having been sent by a verified number.

Thank you to the developers for creating this program!
