Checklist
Feature description
The app currently supports blocking messages that contain specific keywords, but there's no way to define exceptions. If a legitimate message happens to contain a blocked keyword (for example, a bank notification that includes a word also used by spam messages), it gets blocked along with the actual spam, with no way to let it through.
Why do you want this feature?
Add a second list of keywords/phrases that work as a whitelist. When an incoming message matches an allow-list entry, it should bypass the keyword blacklist check entirely and be delivered normally, even if it also matches a blacklisted keyword. This would let users write broader, more effective blacklist rules (e.g. regex-based) without worrying about false positives on messages they actually want to receive.
Additional information
Some other SMS filtering tools (e.g. NekoSMS, CC SMS Blocker) implement this blacklist + whitelist combination, with whitelist rules taking priority over blacklist rules. Happy to attempt a PR for this once the direction is agreed on.
