Doesn’t Work

First two messages I received after installing app were spam. Didn’t block or catch either one. Uninstalled
Doesn’t work

Last week I added the words “Amazon“ and “earpods“ to my block list. Today I got a text about some stupid Amazon earpod giveaway. Doesn’t work.
Waste of time and money

I was tired of spam text messages so I thought I’d try this app. I purchased the full version of this app hoping it would work better. Well after a month, nothing has changed. It doesn’t block messages that have matched keywords. The app itself hasn’t “learned” what to filter, which was the point of purchasing the full version. It was a waste of time and money.
Scam? Proceed with caution

Never had a single issue with Spam callers or texters, but a friend advised me to download a blocker regardless. I made the mistake of choosing Vero - upon realizing they could monitor my incoming messages I deleted the App, and suddenly started getting 50+ spam messages a day. Take this warning with a grain of salt as I can’t prove whether or not they’re the cause, but it seems oddly suspicious that my number (a number that never had spam calls or texts even before Vero) suddenly gets hammered after leaving Vero. Almost seems like they want their business back and are driving demand eh?
works fair

blocks a few things, but the subject line doesn’t count so most still come in, would be nice to block with a wild character example block anything from 1410xxx to block all the spams coming in sequence
Finally Something that Works

I have tried a lot of other apps. Only a couple actually worked but required a subscription and still didn’t block certain spam text. Having the ability to put in custom words in is amazing. AI can be good at blocking but sometimes being able to add your own words is just better. May take a bit to get everything typed in, but it’s worth it in the end. I was getting 10-20 spam text a day. It’s already stopped them since I installed it a couple hours ago, they were put in the junk folder. Only thing I wish it had was the ability to block the text notifications on my Apple Watch. Hoping maybe that will be something added later on. For now because I get so many text I just disabled notifications for text on my watch.
Doesn’t work at all as advertised

I get constant scam texts claiming to be AT&T offering gifts WITH a hyperlink. I have tried various combinations of keywords using the common phrases used “here’s a freebie” “here’s a little gift” etc. This doesn’t work even though the test function says it will be blocked when you copy/paste one of the spam texts. Also it should automatically block it because there’s a hyperlink and it doesn’t.
Does not work

I’ve had VeroSMS running on my iPhone for a couple of week. Despite setting up numerous keyword filters, spam text messages with those words pass right through totally unimpeded.
Very good

I ended up turning off all the ML and crowdsourcing keywords because they were a little overzealous, but I'm fine with adding my own keywords and the app works really well for that. It's a nice app.
