My family share plan includes a phone for my elderly mother, who lives in a different state. She uses her phone occasionally to place calls, but does not text. Nonetheless, she receives a handful of spam and marketing texts every month. Is there any way I can block these so that I don't have to pay for them?
My mom is completely tech-phobic, so I'm looking for a solution that I can implement on my end.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can provide!
