Is it possible to auto delete SMS?

Let's say that a friend of mine sends texts to someone that he wouldn't want my, (erm his) wife to find out about.
Is there an SMS manager that will auto delete all texts to and from a certain number at 5pm, for example, each day?
My friend will be very grateful for any ideas.
look for a firewall app it wont delete them but it will hide them.
Not exactly a common request, so probably not.
Should be easy enough to knock up an app to iterate through the messaging inbox and delete anything from number x. So if you know VB/C#/C++, or care to put in a few days learning, it should be an easy enough project.
Who knows, you could even profit from it, and we could see AffairCoverup Pro(TM) released in MS' new app store.
Yeeaaaah. ACP(TM) We have a title. I just need to learn to program...

cool app ! I was almost sure that was not possible to do that !
SMS Organizer - should work for you
Try SMS Organizer ( search for SMS Organizer by trailblaze in google play store)
It can auto delete sms when the sms sender matches some predefined number or string.
Basically you can set 'rules' where you mention that if the incoming/outgoing sms macthes certain conditions (say the sender is so and so,or the message text has a certain keyword), auto delete/move it to a custom folder.
Great app to organize and manage your sms inbox bye the way.

[Q] Is there a Call/SMS block App?

I'm looking for something to block calls and sms. Similar to SPC, Super Private Conversation, on Android.
I was looking for similar app too, but can't find anything :/
call block app is not available for wp7 yet.
i prefer magicall. hope the app will be out soon. magicall for wp7?
Magicall was the best call blocker I used on 6.5. I liked the fact it would block a call even if you were on another call. I wasn't able to find that feature in any of the other programs.
No Public API support [yet]
Currently the public APIs and the application execution model do not allow third parties to make such an application.
Microsoft needs to make some more API's available for developers to be able to create such an application.
This type of application is what keeps me from defecting to iPhone or WP7. Until true multitasking is made available on WP7, we won't see this type of app.
MagiCall is the main app that keeps me using the TP2 instead of upgrading.
if MS read this, please add call record 2 ways API too

Simple android endpoint app

I have this particular problem: I don't have a phone, but I have a Skype phone number, SMS is very convenient but Skype cannot receive SMS from phones however it can send SMS to phones. So I send my friends texts but it is one way.
I'm a web developer, not a platform developer <- much harder in my opinion, syntax
So, if I created a database to store messages, users, and used that as an API and I wanted a simple app with a text box that you can write into and receive, with a send button / search for user/contact, how hard is that to do for all three platforms? Connect to the database then communicate with this app as if it was a native SMS client.
Maybe it already exists...
I think it's a good idea.
Although I should just get a phone ha
Any thoughts would be appreciated, maybe I'll make it myself. Android then Windows then Apple

[APP][2.3+]SMS Hider-hides & stores messages privately even marketing type

Hi! I am new to android and its my first app.
SMS Hider:com.tech9pedia.dontbother
playdotgoogledotcom/store/apps/details?id=comdottech9pediadotdontbother
SMS Hider is an app which hides SMS from numbers selected by you and stores them separately. It also works for those numbers which are used to send promotional messages. The best thing is that when you select any number to hide SMS then you don’t even receive the notification when the SMS is received by your device. It means complete peace of mind for you and whenever you feel like reading them, you simply need to open the app.
And to prevent the SMS Hider app from intruders, it comes with a fully working Audio Manager as the disguise screen.You can use the Audio Manager to manage audio levels of your Android device. In case, if any one gets successful in bypassing the screen (keep Pressing the audio manager text for few secs) then he/she will still need to enter PIN before he/she can see the hidden messages.
Main Features of SMS Hider:
• Choose any phone number including promotional messages number to hide. You won’t even get notification when you will receive SMS from any of the selected numbers.
• Access all hidden texts from the SMS Hider app via an easy to use interface.
• Add number by typing it either manually or import from your device’s phonebook.
• PIN protect app with PIN of your choice along with fully working Audio Manager as the disguise screen. No restrictions over choice of length for adding PIN although we aren’t responsible if you choose an easy to crack PIN
• Filter hidden SMS by date or sender’s name.
• Reply to SMS, forward SMS, Share it with others and copy to clipboard.
• Muti-select option to delete hidden SMS and Sort SMS by time.
The app is still in BETA phase so you might face a few small problems.
If you have any more features in mind which you would like to see in the app then share them via comments.
PS: Its compatible only up to android 4.3 or earlier version. If anyone knows how it could be made compatible with kitkat & higher version, the help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for using the app.
