How To Stop Spam Messages On Android

Method 1: Enable Spam Protection in Google Messages

Google Messages is the default text messaging app on most Android smartphones these days, no matter whichever brand you get the device from. The app features a built-in feature to protect you from spam messages. Here is how you can enable it to block spam texts on your device.

Method 2: Turn Off RCS in Google Messages

RCS (Rich Communication Services) is used by Google Messages as a standard, and having it enabled gives you access to some exciting features within the app. But it also lets businesses send you spam messages. If you are tired of such spam from the app, then turn RCS off using these steps.
Turning off RCS chats will also disable features like read receipts, typing indicator, animated emojis and more. Turn it off only if you don’t use the service frequently.

Method 3: Report Individual Spam Messages

In case there is a particular business that keeps dropping annoying promotional texts in your inbox, then you can directly report it as spam and block the number. Here is how you can do it.
With these ways, you can for sure minimize the amount of spam messages that you get on Android. Besides that, we would also recommend you to refrain from using apps like Truecaller and avoid giving your phone number for signing in to apps and services.
