Key Messages is an application that blocks communication with unknown contacts, spam and ads. The free version of the program assumes limited functions. The user can't block advertising mailings, back up messages, or prohibit incoming messages from unknown numbers.
The program allows you to set a white list of contacts for everyday communication. After installing the paid Key Messages, all messages and calls are redirected to the application's internal folder. The built-in call and message manager on the phone is deactivated.
The function involves banning incoming SMS from unknown numbers that do not appear in the phone book. In addition, the user stops receiving all kinds of spam and advertising. To do this, Key Messages analyzes not only the number of the sender, but also the text of the message. If a stop word is detected in the header of a contact or its message, the SMS will not reach the recipient.
The option blocks incoming calls from unknown numbers. To avoid losing contact with loved ones, the phone book needs to be updated periodically. Call barring can be set up and on already existing contacts base. To add a number to the blacklist, just move it to the banned numbers list, preserving it in the phone memory.
