[android-developers] Making an apk exclusively receive an SMS

Hello-
Our app processes SMS'es meant for it. However, such SMS'es are also
picked up by other SMS-based apps. And in this case, such SMS-based
apps would display the SMS message meant for our app in clear text,
and we don't want that to be seen.
So, is there a way to exclusively send an SMS to an apk? Our app has
the highest priority for handling SMS'es, but obviously, there can be
other apps that do the same. Does Android implement a port concept
(as in J2ME), where an app can listen to SMS'es meant for it on it's
specific port?
