About Elek: Spam Call & SMS Blocker
Block spam calls and filter spam texts, all in one app. Elek sorts unwanted messages into Junk and silences or labels scam calls, and the filtering runs on your iPhone. SPAM TEXT FILTER • Your own rules: choose words, phrases or sender numbers, and decide whether a match goes to Junk, Transactions, Promotions or is always allowed • Whole-word matching, wildcards (free*gift) and regex patterns for advanced rules • AI filter: an on-device machine learning model that flags likely spam without any rules • Test it first: paste a message and see exactly how your rules and the AI would handle it • Smart Filter Packs for Bank Security (phishing texts, fake transaction alerts), Package Delivery (fake tracking and delivery texts) and US Election Shield (political texts) SPAM CALL BLOCKER • Silent Block: calls from a number or prefix never ring your phone • Spam Label: calls from a prefix still ring, but show "Spam" on the call screen • Smart Call Packs for the US: International Scam Calls (one-ring scams from Caribbean area codes), Premium Rate Numbers (900 numbers) and Neighbor Spoofing protection that labels calls faking your own area code (saved contacts are not affected) PRIVATE BY DESIGN Messages are filtered on your device. Their content is never uploaded, shared or sold. SET IT UP ONCE Turn Elek on in Settings > Messages > Unknown & Spam, and in Settings > Phone > Call Blocking & Identification. Elek then works in the background. iOS only filters texts from senders who are not in your contacts. FREE AND PREMIUM Elek is free to use with up to 3 rules per filter category. Elek Premium unlocks unlimited rules and is available as a monthly, annual or lifetime purchase. Prices are shown in the app before you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple ID settings.

What’s new
Version 1.6.2 · Updated October 16, 2026
Easier rules, better call blocking. • New rule editor: add words as chips, one by one • Words match whole words, so "win" catches "wins" but not "window" • Use * as a wildcard, like free*gift • Regex rules are back under Advanced, with US examples for toll-free numbers and shortened links • Call blocking handles large prefix lists more reliably • Clearer "Look in" picker and better VoiceOver support
