# Bouncer: SMS Filter for iOS

Welcome to **Bouncer**, a privacy-focused SMS filtering app for iOS devices. Utilizing the ILMessageFilterExtension, Bouncer organizes unwanted and specific messages into the "Junk", "Promotion", and "Transaction" sections of the Messages app.

## Prioritizing Privacy and Security

Unlike other SMS filtering apps, Bouncer does not share, upload, or send any of your personal information or SMS messages to a remote server. All filtering processes occur locally on your phone, ensuring data privacy and security.

## Customize Your Messaging Experience

Bouncer checks messages against a user-defined blacklist, providing a personalized and clutter-free messaging experience.

## Features

* Filter SMS messages using a simple list of words

* Categorize filtered messages in iOS 16+ sections (Junk, Transaction, Promotion) and subcategories

* Unlimited filter rules

* Localized in English, Spanish, and more

* Support for both word lists and regular (PCRE) expressions

* Import and export filter rules

## Latest Release

### Stable Version

Version 2.x is [available in the App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bouncer-private-sms-blocker/id1457476313).

### Try the Beta

### Looking for an Older Version?

## Tech Stack/Specs

Bouncer is written entirely in Swift and features:

* Combine framework

* SwiftUI 2.x features and improvements
