Apple Messages is doing something massive for the public, and it is to avoid junk or spam texts from unknown numbers or addresses, especially those with system-generated content. The Cupertino company said it would come with the new iOS 16, and the betas are all pointing out that this feature is coming for users and giving them peace of mind.
Apple Messages: No More Junk or Spam Texts Coming for You
Who wants to have some random number or email address texting them offers from Amazon or job openings, despite not looking for them? Or have random texters that ask for money or pose to be their family members then include links in the text? No one. These are examples of spam messages that bots or threat actors send to people daily.
However, according to Tech Crunch, Apple's new iOS 16, which is still in its beta seeding phase, aims to bring a new feature that will filter the spam or junk texts from those that users need to see. It is a feature that will help avoid getting random messages from users, especially if it has nothing to do with their lives and events.

iOS 16 is Making Sure You Are Safe from Spam
Apple calls this the "SMS Filtering and Privacy" feature with the iOS 16. and the function will help gatekeep these junk messages from appearing in one's log, avoiding any inconvenience for them. Some messages have links, and even though users do not click or open them, they may still bring malware or viruses to a phone.
No junk texts are safe; frankly, they are annoying when waiting for someone else's reply.
What is Coming with the iOS 16?
The WWDC 22 brought out many marvels for the users of the iPhone, especially with the many features to receive in the arrival of the iOS 16 in the coming months. It is one massive upgrade without necessarily changing much of the operating system's user interface or looks, something Apple promised and what leakers claimed.
Apart from its Lock Screen features and the accessibility functions that will come to the iOS 16, Apple is also upgrading the Music app, which will now have sorting options. Additionally, Apple users in the beta also claimed that there is coming support for the Nintendo Switch's JoyCon and Pro controllers to help connect to the smartphone.
The iOS 16 is one highly anticipated operating system, and many beta users, reports, and leakers are already contemplating what its final release will be like, once it arrives. The many features that it brings or promises for everyone is coming, and it will help the users adapt to the latest offers of the company, especially with the upcoming iPhone 14.
