Ratings and Reviews
Works Fantastic
But a few white listed sms are being blocked. I need help with this please. Also an option to auto delete would work well too.
ML filter is worse than useless
In the month that I’ve had it, the ML filter has stopped zero of the spam SMSs that I’ve got and misclassified a huge percentage of legitimate texts as spam including at least a couple of very important ones.
Basically you have an app that you have to configure yourself with allow/block list of keywords. Not worth paying for IMO. Two stars because it does _something_ but it scores very low for its intended purpose which is to save you time and frustration.
Well it certainly works but does not stop notifications
It also does not automatically delete the junk sms’s so fir me it helps but needs to auto delete the spam it identifies. Showing as an unread message on the message icon is annoying. A fix or option due?
