Hey Product Hunt,
I built FingerWag because my Messages inbox was getting overrun by spam, political texts, fake toll alerts, surveys, and one-off junk that Apple’s default filtering didn’t catch well enough.
FingerWag is a private iPhone text filter. It runs on-device, uses simple rule packs and custom filters, and sends matching texts from unknown senders to Junk. Your message text isn’t uploaded to a server.
A few things it can do:
- Block political and campaign texts
- Filter common spam and scam patterns
- Add your own custom phrases
- Generate a filter from a spam example
- Keep filtering local to your iPhone
I’d love feedback from anyone dealing with SMS clutter, especially around which rule packs or filter workflows would make this more useful.
