Spam And junk texts

Okay. I delete and report junk on every spam/junk text apparently that does nothing. Somehow some organization got my phone number okay stuff happens. When I delete and report junk texts the number should be automatically blocked without me having to go through more steps to block the number. It stands to reason if I’m deleting and reporting junk then I don’t want anything more from that phone number. With this new vaunted AI that everyone is touting the same Content I’m deleting is unwanted so an algorithm could intercept these junk emails by content and place them in a junk folder rather than coming directly into my text and watch as a message. Just like email. Why can’t this be done?

There are 3rd party apps that will filter junk. But the best way to deal with junk SMS/MMS texts (not iMessages) is to forward them to 7726 (SPAM) and your carrier will block them for everyone, not just you.
