Spam text blocking provides you with the peace and protection you need by preventing bad actors and scammers from reaching you via text. By blocking those on our spammer list, YouMail detects and blocks spam texts so you can preserve your identity and protect your private information. As of now, spam text blocking and filtering is only available on iOS devices.

Spam text blocking eliminates scammers trying to entice you to give away personal information via text. By blocking them, YouMail is preventing you from engaging in potentially harmful conversations.

While YouMail is unable to block spam text messages from being received, we are able to filter them so they do not clutter your Messages app. The YouMail app would need to be installed on your device for the option to be available.

• Navigate to settings
• Open your iPhone Settings and find the Messages tab.
• Once the Messages tab is selected, scroll down to Unknown & Spam. It will be under the Message Filtering heading.
• From here, make sure that YouMail is enabled under the SMS Filtering heading.
• Once YouMail is enabled there will be a new tab in your Messages app. Any spam or junk text messages will appear there.
