About
Text Spam Arrest is an iOS app that uses AI to automatically filter spam text messages. It sorts non-spam messages into subfolders (Promotions, Transactions, etc., with subcategories under Transactions such as Finance, Orders, Reminders, Health, Weather, and Carrier) to reduce inbox clutter. The AI engine is trained on the entire English vocabulary and various scam types. The app requires no manual keyword input and works in the background. It filters SMS/MMS messages from unknown senders; it does not filter iMessages. The app includes a reporting mechanism for missed spam.

What happens to my existing messages on my iPhone?

Do I need to enter keywords to keep up with the latest spams?
No - we do that work for you. Our AI models understand the nuances of the English language (& all other major languages). So, it can spot spams and keep up with the latest ones.

Apple provides a set of Folder names that Spam Arrest creates by default. Here is how we classify messages from Unknown senders (not in your contacts list): 1. Promotions: Offers, promos, rewards for products or services 2. Transactions: All other messages in one of the Subcategories below Subcategories of Transactions include: * Finance: Banking, Credit, Debit * Orders: Purchase orders say from Amazon or Walmart * Reminders: Appointment or booking reminders * Health: Doctor, Dentist or Vet messages * Weather: Earthquake or weather alerts * Carrier: Your Internet or Wireless provider messages

Do I need to run the Spam Arrest app in the background?
No. The Spam Arrest app installs an extension. The Apple iOS system runs this in the background for you. This extension scans and filters all your incming SMS/MMS messages.
How can I report messages that are missed by your filter?
The Spam Arrest app has an Email tab. Click it to open a prefilled email template. You can take a screenshot of the offending suspicious message. And paste it here. We will add it to our filters so that future attempts are blocked.
