Block Spam Texts by Number
Use number filters to block unwanted text messages from specific phone numbers or number prefixes. This is useful for repeated advertising texts, promotional SMS, campaign messages, and unwanted senders.
Block Political Texts and Campaign Messages
Tired of political text spam or repeated campaign messages from changing phone numbers?
With SMSGuard, you can create custom keyword filters for words or phrases commonly found in political texts, campaign messages, fundraising texts, voting messages, or other unwanted political SMS.
Instead of blocking every number individually, keyword filtering can help reduce repeated messages that use similar wording.
Keyword Filters
Block unwanted texts based on words or phrases inside the message.
Create filters for words such as campaign, donate, vote, election, betting, credit, loan, promotion, offer, or link. You can also create your own rules for the messages you want to reduce.
Block Unknown Senders
Enable unknown sender blocking to filter messages from numbers that are not saved in your contacts. Blocked messages are kept in a separate section for review.
Spam and Scam Text Filtering
SMSGuard helps you manage spam texts, scam texts, suspicious messages, and unwanted SMS. Filters can also help identify suspicious messages containing links.
SMS & MMS Messaging
SMSGuard is also a messaging app. Send and receive SMS and MMS, manage conversations, archive or delete messages, copy selected message text, and review blocked messages.
Privacy-Focused Use
SMSGuard processes your messages on your device. Your message content is not used for advertising targeting purposes.
When you report spam, the message content itself is not sent. Only limited and anonymous information that helps improve spam protection is used.
