How do I revoke SMS permission?
Product verified: 14 August 2026Android and iOS unless stated otherwise
Direct answer
There are two different actions:
- To pause SMS import inside HisabAI, open Profile → Settings → Import → SMS import, then tap Disable SMS import.
- To revoke the Android permission completely, open Android Settings → Apps → HisabAI → Permissions → SMS → Don't allow. Labels vary by Android version.
When permission is revoked, HisabAI stops SMS listening, cancels an active historical scan, and clears pending SMS-import work on the device. Transactions already added to the ledger are not removed automatically.
