Question 1

How does SMS Spam Armor work?

Accepted Answer

SMS Spam Armor uses Apple's Identity Lookup framework to filter SMS and MMS messages from unknown senders. The app analyzes incoming messages using three layers of protection: phone number blocking, keyword detection, and pattern recognition. All processing happens directly on your device - your messages never leave your iPhone, ensuring complete privacy.

Question 2

Is my data safe and private?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! SMS Spam Armor is built with privacy as the top priority. All message filtering happens 100% on your device using Apple's secure Identity Lookup framework. Your messages are never transmitted, stored externally, or collected. We have zero access to your data, and everything stays completely private on your iPhone.

Question 3

What types of messages does it filter?

Accepted Answer

SMS Spam Armor filters SMS and MMS messages from unknown senders. This includes spam texts, phishing attempts, fraudulent messages, promotional texts, and any unwanted content. You can customize filtering rules to block specific phone numbers, keywords, or message patterns. Messages from your contacts always come through unfiltered.

Question 4

Can I customize what gets blocked?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You have complete control over your filtering rules. Block specific phone numbers by adding them to your blocklist, create keyword filters to block messages containing spam phrases or unwanted content, and enable pattern detection to identify common scams. You can create custom rules tailored to your specific needs and preferences.

Question 5

Is there a subscription fee?

Accepted Answer

SMS Spam Armor is free to download with essential spam protection features. The Spam Armor Pro Annual subscription ($4.99/year) unlocks unlimited blocked numbers, import/export functionality for your rules, and access to Protection Patterns Plus with advanced spam-pattern updates. A 16-day grace period is included with your purchase.

Question 6

Will it block messages from my contacts?

Accepted Answer

No, never! SMS Spam Armor only filters messages from unknown senders - people who are not in your contacts. All messages from your saved contacts, friends, and family will always come through normally, completely unaffected by the filtering system.
