Spam Text Messages (iPhone XR) Is there an effective way to block spam text messages. I have message filtering turned on, but it's only effective about 50% of the time. Mostly they are from phone numbers, but sometimes they are coming from some weird email address. It seems like I'm blocking half a dozen (or more) numbers every day. And is there someone to report them?

“Filter unknown senders” only filters iMessages (to/from Apple devices). Your iPhone cannot filter SMS text messages sent via cellular carrier.
