What is the best ad-free SMS app with ability to block spam based on content?

[Adam_nox]

I had heard that android had this built in, but apparently not with the newest messages app. So I need an alternative. Let me know what's out there. Has to be absolutely ad-free and free. If it's a port from another device or older android, that's good enough.

Thanks!

I use Mood Messenger, no adds but I don't think you can blacklist using key words only by number. There is a program in the Play Store named SMS Blocker. It looks like you can block by keyword. I don' t know if it has adds though.

Pulse in the GPStore is both, secure as well.

I looked in F-Droid for an Ad-Free App and tested 5 Apps. All but one could only block by sender-number and not by keyword-filters. And the one that has a SMS message filter is too old and not supported in new Android versions
I would like an App that could whitelist all contacts for SMS and apply keyword filters to the rest of incoming SMS. They are anonymous (no numerical existing Phone-number) and so manual blocking is a useless task...

@ChriMo , did you check "silence" in F-Droid? it might have what your looking for.
good luck

@mrrocketdog I just tried Silence but could not find any setting about filtering incoming SMS with keywords. The App seems focused on the End-to-End encryption of SMS-Messaging including a PIN to protect/encode SMS Messages and the blocking of senders (which also the standard SMS App does).
