## SmartFilter for SMS Reviews in United States

### ***** "Life altering"
I’ve always been so careful about not giving out my number but the political fundraisers found me anyway.  Happy to give money to democrats but not happy to receive 10 or more texts a day.  Deleting and reporting junk did nothing.  Smart filter made it stop.  The quiet is awesome. The most life improving app I’ve ever had.
-- No words for game, 2025-10-29

### ***** "Honestly…it’s great, and how often can you say that"
Wish it could sort into personalized folders but otherwise this is one of the best set it and forget it apps on here
-- dbintime, 2025-05-26

### *---- "Abandoned"
Last update was from 4 years ago, blocking emails doesn’t work, keyword blocking only sometimes works
-- notoriousjeff, 2025-05-09

### ***** "Works great!"
With this app, I’m easily able to filter out spam text messages from unknown numbers that contain specific keywords. Great app!
-- EastFeast, 2025-03-31

### ***** "Life saver"
This app is great no more spam text!
-- 2021AFA, 2024-03-31

### **--- "Keyword Filter No Longer Working"
I used to be a big fan of this app, but the Keyword function (user-specified words to always allow or always classify as Junk) stopped working months ago. That was the most important feature for me, so I’ve moved on to an alternate app. The reasons I am giving two stars instead of one are:  (1) The less-important-to-me automatic (ie. NON-keyword based filtering) may still be functioning; and (2) in appreciation of prior usefulness and support.
-- RDP94, 2024-01-28

### ***** "You’ll need nothing else!"
I was looking for something to help stop all the junk text I was getting everyday! Downloaded lots of apps that claim to stop them from getting through! After a few weeks of trying all the apps, I ran across this one! Figured I’d give it a try and just as soon as I set it up, 100% of the junk text completely stopped reaching my inbox! 
It’s been over a year now and I’m still waiting for a junk text to get through! 
This app is by far the best one I’ve tried yet!
-- DGoodrow, 2024-01-02

### ***** "I can’t believe it… all the political sms have stopped"
I’m so happy to have found this app. I went through the gazillion sms I’ve received from political campaigns and extracted the root domains like “winred”, and “red23”. After adding a dozen of these filter words I waited. By the next day 3 have already been filtered to junk. What a blessing. Thank you so much Jake. Sent a tip right away.
-- notsleepy, 2023-09-28

### *---- "Keyword filter does not work"
Tried to match text to incoming SMS alerts. Messages still go through. Maybe it just handles single words, which would be dumb.
-- NicksOtherName, 2023-07-26

### ***** "Best Message Filter"
Recommend it to everyone!
-- JonnyVibes, 2023-05-23
