SMS would be a much better platform if there were actually any decent apps.
I want but cannot find these features:
- Disable/mute notifications for all unsaved (contactless) numbers.
- Block all texts from email addresses. Real people know what is painfully obvious: you can use my email for that!
- Disable/mute notifications for all group texts. People don't expect to get an immediate response from sending a message to a group. You can practically never get multiple people together in person for a conversation without coordinating with each person beforehand.
