It works amazing.

Relatively worthless, Although the headline states the app BLOCKS texts, it does NOT. In the smaller print it states the truth. It only blocks the notification. You still receive the text and you still have to delete it or mark it as spam yourself. I suppose some people may see that as desirable. What I want is an app that blocks reception of the texts.

Thank you for the honest feedback. You’re right: on Android, only the phone’s default messaging app can stop a text from arriving, and Google Play strictly limits SMS access for other apps. So Gatekeeper silences the notification of texts that match your rules, but the text itself stays in your inbox. I assure you, this is much safer.

Very hit and miss blocking SMS spam. I filtered out two area codes completely but some junk texts from those numbers still get through. It also doesn't filter out the keywords I gave it.

Thanks for the detailed feedback. For a US area code, pick +1 and type 213 under Number/prefix. If texts still get through, write to support@zadetech.com with the sender number and the words you added. Please do not send message text. We will look into it.

New to this android app. So far it is the only one avaiable, and it seems to actually work. Smart of the creator(s) to see a need for a text "word" blocker where others rely on common cell number blocking. It is simple & easy to use. No third parties involved at this time, but caution always required!

Hi Mary, thank you so much for the kind review! We're really glad Gatekeeper is working for you and that the keyword blocking is useful. Feedback like yours means a lot.

Useless call blocking app since it doesn't allow a wildcard for caller id. i need to block an area code. app doesn't allow for this. however you can do this for sms texts. Uninstalled
Developer reply
Thanks for the feedback, and sorry the app did not fit. Our earlier reply was wrong: Android can block a whole area code for calls, and we have put it on our list. Short prefixes already work for texts. If you give Gatekeeper another try, write to support@zadetech.com and we will help.
