Junkman is the most powerful SMS filtering app for iOS. It can classify incoming messages as normal, junk, transaction or promotion. It will not classify old messages. It works completely locally on your device without the need for any network connectivity. It is written to filter all kinds of unwanted text messages, including betting, political, scam messages and company advertisements. Junkman primarily uses a state-of-the-art machine learning algorithm called Smart Filter, that is trained with thousands of messages in English and Turkish languages. This results in an artificial intelligence which can classify the message contents. The Smart Filter can differentiate between normal (conversations etc.), transaction (bank OTP messages, shipping information, doctor appointments, etc.) and junk (promotional, gambling, unsolicited, spam etc.) messages instantly. It treats all promotion messages as junk. Junkman also has a spam and threat database with special filters to detect and filter the most invasive junk messages without the need for the Smart Filter. In case you would like to override the classification of the automated filters, you can add rules to one of the Safe, Junk, Transaction and Promotion lists in the app. If you don't receive English or Turkish messages, and you only receive messages in other languages, you can disable the Smart Filter completely and manage messages using the rule lists. The rule lists let you write much more powerful rules than most of the competing apps. They can work on both the sender or the content of a message and they accept any input including regular expressions (Regex). They are also simpler to manage than other apps. If you think the Smart Filter did not classify one or more messages correctly, you can report them from the Messages app (iPhone only) for review. The more wrong classifications you report, the better the Smart Filter gets! Features of Junkman: • Smart Filter: A state-of-the-art machine learning algorithm that can classify any message in English or Turkish as normal, junk or transaction • Spam and Threat Database: A database that includes special filters which can be updated immediately using instant notifications when necessary • Aggressive Filter: A special algorithm to directly filter the most invasive junk messages without the need for the Smart Filter • Rule lists, supporting any input, including powerful regular expressions (Regex) • Under Attack Mode: A mode that can help with text message attacks • Reporting Extension support to report messages that you think were not classified correctly by the Smart Filter (iPhone only) • Configuration testing that lets you check any message to see the classification in real time • iCloud sync support for sender lists to sync information between your devices • Support for both iOS and iPadOS devices • Silences notifications for junk messages on Apple Watch • Detailed VoiceOver design for better accessibility support • Dark mode support • Interoperability with Begone - Spam Call Blocker and Directory Junkman must be enabled as a message filter in Settings -> Messages -> Unknown & Spam in order to start classifying messages. Junkman is the successor of SMS Checker app. ----- Junkman works completely locally on your device. It does not collect, store or transmit any data you enter into it.

Five stars and I’m happy to support the developer by paying! The political spam Blitzkrieg assault is over thanks to Junkman. Hail Junkman!

Love this
I was getting between 5 and 10 political texts per day and now they all stopped. Life changing!
A Hidden Gem That Will Not Disappoint!
I to be a Textkiller user, however, they raised their prices from $29.99 to $79.99 and that’s not worth it. After trying several different Apps I stumbled upon Junkman. I couldn’t believe it, why have I been paying for a subscription when Junkman does the exact same thing except better. Here are the top five reasons why I feel this App exceeds all others. 1: Totally free no trials everything works. 2: Works locally does not store any information. 3: AI smart filter algorithms. 4: Ability to use regular expressions & partial filters. 5: Ability to block bomb attacks.
EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED
I was getting up to 50 unwanted political texts every day. I tried everything and it was driving me crazy. So thankful I found Junkman. It worked immediately.
Just what I wanted
Thus far I have been using Junkman solely to silence SMS that contain words that I specify. These include ads using the name of someone whose phone was assigned my number in the past; political solicitations; and more. The app I was using for this previously stopped working. But Junkman has performed the task flawlessly. And it is more versatile, e.g. allowing you to specify whether the rule you create requires a partial match or an exact match. One caution is that if something seems like it’s not working, be sure you have checked every setting. (Without getting too specific, there were cases where I thought that disabling option “A” automatically disabled seemingly-related option “B,” but it didn’t.) Soon I will try the other capabilities.
Junk
I have been having problems for six months people texting me 50 times and one day all this stuff about I have malware I have this I have that spam and I couldn’t stop it. I kept blocking them I put this on last night and it has blocked every one of them and has three contained, I’m very impressed I didn’t have to wake up to 50 text messages
If Junkman stops filtering messages after an update, please reboot your device. Thanks to everyone for their positive reviews and support. • Fixed a bug in rule adding logic • Updated Smart Filter and Aggressive Filter
