Hello Johnny,

SMS Shield is an additional security layer that warns you when you receive an SMS messaging containing a malicious URL. Due to Android system restrictions, a message itself cannot be blocked or modified, so showing an alert is the only way to protect you in this case.

Additionally, SMS Shield warns you when you receive an SMS message from a phone number which is a known malware distributor or spammer based on the experience of other users by looking up the sender in our database of known malicious phone numbers.

So, we always recommend users to enable the SMS shield option. Follow the below suggested steps to enable SMS shield :

Open AVG Anti-virus -> Tap on the drawer menu at the top left corner -> Settings -> Protection -> SMS shield - Enable this option.
