Easy to use
This app is very important for privacy, these apps don’t exist in the app store, so this is a rare find. Removes youtube and amazon tracking urls, amazing! Thank you!
Awesome app
So pumped for the new Mac app! I’ve tried recreating it myself with shortcuts and it’s just not the same! Such a great app. Thanks for all your hard work!
Amazing app but wish it was more stable/consistent
Thanks for a great tool! However, could you please look into a few bugs on iOS? (I couldn’t find a feedback form in-app)
1) the share sheet UI can leave in xpid parameters in Amazon
2) the Safari extension often doesn’t work. After pressing the button, the UI just flashes but there’s no message indicating any links were cleaned—which can be confirmed by inspecting hyperlinks on the page. This also happens on Amazon.

Good but lingering bug spoils it
It’s a fantastic app, but Facebook marketplace links have been broken for months. Instead of just getting rid of the question mark and everything after, it gives a weird spammy ad link.
I’ll update my review once that’s fixed, because it’s a really irritating bug.

Love this app! No thrills and no BS - it does exactly as advertised
Want to get rid of trackers and other non-necessities attached to your shared links from YouTube, etc? Use this app. It does as advertised. And, the developer makes other apps that are equally as wonderful and are not slop. Give it a try, it’s free. 😋

Seemed to all then gone
Works well, but still connects to network
Great option for QR codes, but really needs a way to prevent automatically expanding short links. This can still attribute a click to you if the original URL was targeted or shared only to you.
Great App for Cleaning Useless Tracking Junk from Links
It occasionally leaves a dangling piece but saves me a bunch of editing before I send links to others or when posting online.
Removes UTM spyware
If you want to remain more anonymous online sharing links from copy/paste this is the way
Intuitive with One (Minor) Flaw
App does exactly what it says it does with no extra fluff or frills. It just works and that’s pretty refreshing these days. However, to the developer: when opening a cleaned link in browser I noticed it goes straight to Safari and this can’t be changed. I use Chrome as my default browser—never touch Safari. Being able to select your browser, or bare minimum have the app use the browser the user has selected as their “default browser” in their iPhone settings seems like a simple update/implementation. My two cents!

Fantastic app
I really enjoy the service this app provides. Makes it very easy to strip identifying parameters out of URLs and helps decipher URL shortener links. I also use their shortcut as one of the widgets on my Lock screen to read QR codes from the camera, and the app works very well in this regard too. Regular updates, easy to use, fast results - bravo.

5 stars, no notes
I stumbled upon this one after reading an online article. It does exactly what it says and nothing else: cleaning links, and automatically copying the cleaned link so you can maximize productivity. You can set it to monitor your clipboard and automatically clean any links that it comes across. Definitely easier, faster, and more convenient than using a website-based link cleaner.

It does what it says it does

This is almost perfect. Was exactly what I was looking for.
I was getting tired of stripping long UTMs from news and other app links when posting on discord. At first this app seemed like it was just for QR Codes (which is also something that’s always bothered me with iPhone) but it also lets you grab copy links from apps and websites and quickly strip the parameters.
Only thing that could be better is if it had the option to put the link in the clipboard in one click, but perhaps iOS prevents that?
But this is still way quicker, easier and more accurate than trying to delete them manually every time.
And it’s free, they don’t track you or steal your data like almost every other app seems to want to do these days. It’s a privacy advocates dream app! Thank you to the devs!

Works great. Killer feature is the optional, automatic clipboard monitoring!
I was looking everywhere for a safari extension that automatically strips out tracking junk from links. I searched and saw this one but it didn’t mention that it has a feature to automatically monitor your clipboard and automatically clean links! This is your killer feature and I would add an image preview for it! Great app!

Sweet!
What a great little app. Drop dead simple and does exactly what you need with no fuss.
Fantastic
Nice little app to clean and link to send to others. Free but does its job very well. Thanks to the dev
