Bouncer: Spam Text Blocker

Bouncer is an iPhone SMS filtering tool with keyword, number, and regular-expression rules.

Our take

Consider it if you want to adjust your own filters and prefer the developer's stated on-device approach.

Specific rules let you tune which text messages are classified for filtering.

Keep in mind: It is described as an SMS filter; do not assume it filters every message type or catches every unwanted text.

What you can do

  • Create keyword or number rules
  • Use regular expressions for more detailed matching
  • Review filtered messages when a rule is too broad

Good for

  • People who want control over SMS filtering

Consider alternatives for

  • Anyone seeking carrier-level protection or filtering of all messaging apps

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 26.0.
  • It is described as an SMS filter; do not assume it filters every message type or catches every unwanted text.

Privacy & permissions

The developer says filtering runs on the device and links its source code. This is not a third-party audit.
