The family safe word app · free on iOS

Know it's
really them.

Scammers call pretending to be your grandchild. Vishion gives your family a rotating safe word — two words that change through the day. Ask for them, and you know in seconds. It also checks any suspicious text, email, link or QR code.

Four ways scammers reach you. One app for all of them.

From fake delivery texts to malicious QR codes, Vishion sees what slips past your guard.

// 01

Phishing SMS

Fake delivery alerts, bank warnings, and prize notifications hiding malicious links. Turn on the Messages filter and obvious scam texts from unknown numbers are junked automatically — on your phone, before you ever see them.

// 03 — HOW IT WORKS

Three taps. One verdict.

Send it a screenshot, a link or a QR code. You get a plain answer, not a risk score to interpret.

01

Send anything sketchy.

Share a text, paste a link, point your camera at a QR code, or forward a suspicious email — straight from the share sheet.

02

Vishion analyzes it.

Your phone reads it first — screenshots are read on-device and clear scams are flagged right there, without touching the network. Anything uncertain goes to our AI as text; the picture itself stays on your phone.

03

You get a clear answer.

A score from 0–100, the specific signals that triggered, and a one-tap action: block, report, or move on.

Your screenshots stay on your phone.

Vishion 2.0 does as much as possible on the device itself — using Apple's own frameworks, not a cloud pipeline.

01

Read on your phone.

When you scan a screenshot, the text is read on-device with Apple's Vision framework. The image is never uploaded — not to us, not to anyone.

Apple Vision · No upload
02

Verdicts without the network.

Clear scams — gift-card demands, callback billing cons, lookalike bank domains — are flagged entirely on the phone, with zero network calls. Only uncertain messages go to our AI, as text.

03

Scam texts, junked automatically.

Turn on Vishion in Settings → Messages → Unknown & Spam, and iOS runs Vishion's filter on texts from unknown senders — fully offline. Obvious scams go straight to Junk. Your contacts and iMessages are never touched.

Questions, answered.

Anything else? hello@vishion.ai

How does the two-word check work?

Everyone in your family group sees the same two words on their phone, and those words change through the day. When someone calls or texts claiming to be family, you ask for their two words. A real family member opens Vishion and says or texts them back. Someone pretending cannot — they would need a phone that is already in your group.

Why not just call them back on a number I know?

You still should, and Vishion tells you to. But calling back takes time you may not feel you have when someone sounds frightened, and it fails when the person genuinely is travelling or using a different phone. The two-word check settles it on the call you are already on.

Does Vishion read all my messages?

No. Vishion only sees what you explicitly send to it — via the share sheet, paste, or camera. There is no inbox monitoring, no SMS scraping, and no background access. The optional Messages filter is different by design: iOS runs it on your phone for texts from unknown senders only, entirely offline — nothing about those texts ever reaches Vishion or any server.

Where does the analysis run?

On your phone first. Screenshots are read on-device with Apple's Vision framework — the image itself is never uploaded. If the message is an obvious scam, Vishion tells you so entirely on-device, with no network involved. Only when the local check is unsure is the extracted text (not the picture) sent — with your permission, asked in the app — to Anthropic's Claude, the AI service that performs Vishion's cloud analysis. The two-word family check is fully on-device too — the words are derived from a secret shared only within your family group, and it keeps working with no signal.

Can Vishion filter scam texts automatically?

Yes, on iPhone. Turn it on in Settings → Apps → Messages → Unknown & Spam and choose Vishion. From then on, iOS shows Vishion each text from a number that is not in your contacts, and obvious scams are moved to the Junk section of Messages before you ever see a notification. The filter runs entirely on your phone — Apple does not allow it to access the internet, and texts from your saved contacts and iMessages are never filtered.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every feature, no subscription, no card, and no trial that runs out. There is nothing to buy inside the app.

What if Vishion gets it wrong?

You can rate any result in the app and leave a note. Vishion is a second opinion, not a guarantee — if something feels wrong, stop and check with someone you trust before sending money.

Which platforms?

iOS 15.1 or later. An Android version is in the works — the current Play Store listing is an old build and is being replaced.

Don't be the next victim.
