About SMS Shield
SMS Shield is a Machine Learning-based SMS spam filter for iPhone. We trained it on what spam SMS looks like by showing it tens of thousands of spam SMSs beforehand. SMS Shield then learns and, to a high degree of confidence, can identify spam even it haven't seen it before. Besides spam blocking, SMS Shield includes innovative features like Frequent Traveler Mode.
Features:
+ Automatic Spam Filtering
SMS Shield will automatically block SMS spam like promotions, ads, phishing and scam attempts at stealing your sensitive information (e.g. SMSs claiming to be from your bank).
+ Frequent Traveler Mode
Enable this innovative feature during your business travels to block the often-annoying SMSs sent by mobile operators when visiting other countries (e.g. "Welcome to country X...").
+ Custom Block List
With custom block list, you can block SMSes from specific phone numbers or that include specific keywords. Remember that annoying Ex who keeps SMSing you years later? Blocked!
+ 100% privacy guarenteed
SMS Shield is an offline SMS filter. Meaning it does the filtering offline, on your device. All your texts are 100% private.
+ Multi-lingual spam detection
SMS Shield detects spam (and is localized) in English, Portuguese (Brazil), Italian, Swedish, and Arabic.
If you would like us to add a specific language email us with spam texts you receive (as many as possible).
