Keep The Junk Spam Out Of Your Text Messages With The New "Postman: SMS Spam Blocker"

Postman SMS Spam Blocker is a spam filter and blocker for your text messages. Tired of random spammers sending crap? Use this app to filter those messages automatically. The app can be a little overzealous when you initially install, however, you can configure the “white list” to allow false-positives the app may have labeled as spam. 

Postman SMS Spam Blocker is one of those apps that took a problem and solved it, without a lot of extra bells and whistles. When you install it, the app checks all your incoming text messages, and moves any that are considered spam into its own spam folder, rather than let them move through to your SMS program of choice. You can set the threshold of what it considers spam – the default is high, but you can adjust this in settings.

Another nice feature is that, once a message has been marked spam, you can go in and tell Postman that the sender is “white listed” and it will allow all messages from that person to pass through from there on out. I do wish you could add senders to the list from your address book, or have it scan your current text messages so you can weed out the spam from the legitimate people you talk to right up front. However, that’s a minor complaint, and it just means that it will take a little longer to get the app working seamlessly. Plan on spending a few days, depending on how heavily you text, sorting through the spam folder and assigning white list status to the right people. However, once you do that, the app is one of those that you can just forget about, checking every now and then to make sure nothing you want accidentally slipped through.
