Best SMS Blocker (For a specific number)

[EoN604]

Hi guys,

Could anyone please advise me what the best SMS blocking app is? I want one that allows me to block SMS's from a specific number from someone who is harassing me. I don't need one that 'automatically blocks' based on it looking like spam etc. Just something simple.

This really should be a core part of the OS, and it's very disappointing and a major oversight that it's not. Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers,
EoN604

Try a different messaging app..

Messenger (the Google app) allows you to block numbers and Textra does as well.

I am sure there are others..

Any other ones?

I don't want to use Google Messenger (don't want Google to have access to all my sms's. they already have everything else), and Textra looks ok, but not as nice as the default Z3 messaging app.

I dont like handcent, it feels too 'toyish' with all emojis everywhere etc. Is there any messaging apps that are slick/corporate/professional/high-end, but have all these features?

I want a messaging app that doesn't live (or pass through) any third party servers. I don't need ot want that functionality.

I just want a client side messaging app that's actually good.

Try Smart Notify, you can block numbers only, without SMS
