Reviews for SpamHound SMS Spam Filter
互联网技术下的任何隐私协议承诺都是骗你把隐私交出去的陷阱
Seems unable to adall the new system
This is an imperfect but excellent app that has been incredibly useful since I started using it. It filters almost everything I don't want to see and is customizable. However, since my recent upgrade to iOS 26.2, it seems incompatible with the new system. Apple has added a built-in filter, but it's difficult to use compared to SpamHound. And regardless of whether it's enabled in settings, it doesn't replace SpamHound (SH). Therefore, I think this app, which hasn't been updated in four years, probably needs an update. iOS 26.2 is very unusable, and I hope to revert to the older version if possible. I've been using SpamHound ever since. I'll revise my review after an update.

Has it stopped working?
Messages with words on the blacklist still get through.
