Block SMS By Word

[sinanokatata]

Hi,

There used be an option to block SMS by keywords in samsung messages. I think it removed with and 11 or 12.

I am getting hundreds of spam messages and its so hard to block them number by number. Can anyone please explain me why did they removed this option ? 

I could block whole those sms by adding a single keyword such as "bet" ,"promo" etc. This solved whole situation.

This blocking sms by word should be essential again like in iOS. Can you PLEASE bring it back?

Thanks

There are such apps on Play Store but none I am familiar with to recommend.

Just accept that samsung doesn't value your privacy because why remove a feature that was previously there? No wonder Apple has the biggest Apple share

This is where I am going soon.
I am getting a total of 30+ SMS daily from the 2 sims I have, In the past I had control of what I wanted to see, but now I don't and it seriously drives me crazy.
Sometimes, I miss important SMS because the inbox is full of the SMS that I don't need.

The day you wrote that Apple really values your privacy, is the day you must realize you are in "The Sect". The Apple privacy rethoric is pure marketing. Just make a deep read of their Privacy Policy.

Hi Dear All,

All phone manufacturers except Samsung have a filter of this nature. I suspect that Samsung is doing business with betting/gambling/porn/etc sites.
