- No account, no sign-up
- Dual-SIM ready
Looking for a new SMS app?
Samsung Messages is being retired in July 2026. Tidy picks up your existing texts and takes over in two taps.
Automatic categories
Every text finds its place.
No rules to write, no folders to set up. Tidy reads each message on your phone and files it where it belongs, so the people you care about stay on top.
Contacts
Friends and family first, never buried under alerts.
Unknown
Numbers you haven't saved wait here until you decide.
Codes
One-time passwords and login codes, ready to copy.
Banks
Card payments, transfers and balances in one stream.
Bills
Utility, phone and service bills you shouldn't miss.
Promos
Sales and offers, out of the way until you want them.
Operator
Carrier notices, data balance and plan updates.
Smart spam filter
Junk is silenced: no buzz, no badge. It's still there if you ever need to look.
Made for real inboxes
Small things that save you every day.
Verification codes, big and one tap away.
When a code arrives, Tidy shows it in a large pop-up you can read at a glance. Tap once to copy it and get back to what you were doing.
- Spots codes in any wording, from any sender
- One-tap copy, no squinting at long messages
- Every code also lands in the Codes category
Phishing links, flagged before you tap.
Scam texts pretend to be your bank, a parcel service or a tax office. Tidy checks the links inside messages and warns you when one looks like a trap.
- Clear warning right inside the chat
- Suspicious links aren't opened by accident
- Checked on your phone, nothing uploaded
Ghost mode: messages that clean up after themselves.
Pick a sender and a time. Their messages erase themselves from this phone once the time is up. Handy for codes, delivery updates or anything you'd rather not keep.
- Choose exactly which senders go ghost
- Set how long their messages stay
- Only affects this phone, not the sender's copy
Send it later. Get reminded on time.
Write a birthday text tonight and schedule it for 9 am. Set a reminder on any conversation so you remember to reply, and pay that bill, when it matters.
- Scheduled send for any message
- Reminders attached to a conversation
- Works offline, right on your phone

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is Tidy free?
Yes. Sorting, the spam filter, verification codes, phishing protection, Ghost mode, scheduling, reminders, backup and app lock are all free. Tidy Pro is an optional one-time purchase that adds extras such as sticker packs.
How do I switch from Samsung Messages or another SMS app?
Install Tidy from Google Play, open it and tap “Set as default”. Android asks you to confirm, and that's it. Your existing texts live in your phone's message store, so they show up in Tidy right away, already sorted.
Where are my messages stored?
Only on your phone, in Android's own SMS storage and Tidy's local database. Tidy has no server that receives or keeps your messages.
Why does Tidy need internet access?
Only to download sticker packs. Everything else, including sorting, spam filtering and link checks, works offline on your device. SMS itself goes through your carrier as usual.
What exactly does Ghost mode do?
You choose a sender and a time limit. Messages from that sender are erased from this phone when the time runs out. It only affects your phone: the sender and any other device keep their own copy.
Will the spam filter hide important messages?
Silenced messages don't buzz or show a badge, but they aren't thrown away. You can open them any time, and move a sender back if it was filtered by mistake.
Does Tidy work with two SIM cards?
Yes. Tidy shows which SIM each message arrived on and lets you pick the SIM to send from.
Can I move my messages to a new phone?
Yes. Create an encrypted backup in Tidy, move the file to your new phone and restore it there.
A calmer inbox is one tap away.
