NoScams
Get NoScams

Scam texts go to Junk. Not to you.

NoScams checks every text from a number you don't know the moment it arrives, right on your iPhone. Scams go quietly to Junk. Everything else lands like normal.

Coming soon to the App Store. iPhone only. No account, no sign-up.

What happens when a text arrives

You turn NoScams on once. After that you never open it for this part.

  1. A number you don't know texts you

    iOS hands the text to NoScams before it shows up. Texts from your contacts and people you've been talking to skip this step entirely.

  2. It's checked on your iPhone

    NoScams looks at where the links really go, the wording, and the tricks scammers reuse. It takes a split second and nothing leaves your phone.

  3. Scams go to Junk, the rest to you

    Clear scams land in Junk in the Messages app. Codes, deliveries, appointments, and everything else arrive exactly like normal.

Likely scam

USPS: Your package is on hold due to an incomplete address. Update within 24 hours: usps-redelivery-help[.]com

  • The link goes to usps-redelivery-help[.]com, which is not USPS's real website (usps.com).
  • Delivery companies don't text you a link to fix your address or pay a redelivery fee.
  • It pressures you with a deadline or a threat.
Some warning signs

Hi, is this Jordan? We met at the conference last week.

It opens like a "wrong number" text, a common way scammers start a conversation. There's no link to prove it either way, so don't share personal details with someone you can't place.

Verified sender

Your sign-in code is 482913. It expires in 10 minutes.

Sent from a registered business number, with no warning signs. This is a normal sign-in code.

It protects your texts without reading your phone.

Apple keeps text filters sealed off: they can't save messages or go online on their own. Apple offers apps an optional server check for hard cases. NoScams doesn't use it, so your texts never leave your phone.

Questions

Does NoScams read my texts?

Only texts from numbers you don't know, only on your iPhone, and only for the moment it takes to check them. iOS never shows NoScams messages from your contacts, and NoScams never saves or sends the texts it checks.

What if a real message gets flagged?

That's the mistake we work hardest to avoid. NoScams only moves a text to Junk when the signs are clear, and it never filters verification codes, your contacts, or messages whose links go to the company's real website. Every pattern update is tested against thousands of real company messages before it ships.

If a real message ever lands in Junk, add the sender to Trusted senders in the app and email support@noscams.app so we can fix it for everyone.

Will it catch every scam?

No app can, and we won't pretend otherwise. NoScams catches the common ones automatically and gets updated as new scams appear. When something gets through and feels off, share it to the app for a free check.

How do I turn it on?

After installing, the app walks you through it. On iOS 26 or later: open Messages, tap the Filters button at the top right, tap Manage Filtering, then Text Message Filter, and turn on Text Message Filter and NoScams. It takes about 30 seconds.

Do I need an account?

No. There's no sign-up, email, or phone number. Purchases go through your Apple Account.

Does it work on iMessage?

Apple's filtering covers SMS, MMS, and RCS texts from unknown senders, which is where nearly all scam texts come from. For anything else, including iMessages, WhatsApp, and emails, share it to NoScams to check it.

Can I set it up on my parents' phones?

Yes. Buy any paid plan once, turn on Family Sharing, and install NoScams on their iPhones. Setup takes about 30 seconds per phone.

Stop being your own spam filter.
