Descriptions you can use

One line: AntiSpam is a spam text filter for iPhone that runs entirely on the phone.

Short (about 30 words): AntiSpam is an SMS spam filter for iPhone that runs entirely on the phone. It moves scam, phishing, gambling and marketing texts to Spam and keeps verification codes, bank alerts and deliveries.

Long (about 100 words): AntiSpam is an SMS spam filter for iPhone made by an independent developer in Türkiye. It works inside Apple's Message Filter extension, so every text is checked on the phone and nothing is sent to a server. Instead of relying on lists of numbers, it reads what a text says: it sees through disguised words, link shorteners and lookalike domains, and moves scams, phishing, gambling offers and bulk marketing to the Spam folder. Protective rules for one-time codes, bank and card alerts, deliveries and reminders run before any spam check. The app filters English and Turkish texts and starts with a free month.

Story ideas

  1. Black Friday brings a wave of fake delivery and deal texts. More parcels are on the move, so "your parcel is on hold, pay a small fee" and "problem with your order" texts work better than ever. Our guide shows the seven to watch for and what to do: Black Friday scam texts.
  2. Why verification codes go missing on iOS 26. Screen Unknown Senders mutes every text from a number that isn't in Contacts, including the one-time code from a new service. How to keep the filter and still get your codes: Screen Unknown Senders guide.
  3. A one-person app that started with Türkiye's betting spam. Turkish phones get daily texts for illegal betting sites that change numbers every day. AntiSpam was built to stop them by reading the message, not the number, and now does the same for English scam texts.
