Can't block messages from senders without numbers

[ashara-dayne]

Dear Samsung, 

Why is there no option to block messages from senders without numbers in your default messaging app?! I'm being bombarded with messages with malicious spam links every day, and there is no option to block them! Please fix this on priority, as this may result in serious security breaches on the device!

If you are getting frequent promotional text then you can register your number under full DND service by calling to your service provider

Thanks for the suggestion! I'd like to be able to simply block the messages directly from the messaging app, like I do on other non-Samsung devices, rather than jump through hoops. This is a basic feature that every phone is expected to have.

Correct but its Samsung😀

Samsung is using Google Message App with high customisation.. which leads to less Features, No chat feature work properly, no textid based sms block and further more. So it's up to you, if you want to use the Google Message App or the Samsung..

In Google message app you can block them. Switch from Samsung messages to Google messages anyways you have them both installed in your phone but Google one is much better with more features. Give it a shot

@ragavkumaŕ Google the meaning of the words before using them because obviously you don't know what spam means

Samsung used to have this feature ..but later it was moved to Bixby Routine or Routine plus (from good lock).. don't know why
