## What is Magnet Links?

Tired of seeing "Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid." alerts when you try to open a magnet link? This Safari extension helps by adjusting the links to go through Put.io, to your clipboard, or to any URL you want.

You know how urls start with http:// or https://? Well, some start with `magnet:` and by default most devices do not know how to handle this. Magnet Links lets you choose how you want these urls handled.

This app is not affiliated with Put.io

### 3/5 — Needs an update

*2024-10-13*

Doesn’t work with ios 18 but up until then it was brilliant, sad it no longer works

### 5/5 — Works on ios 17

*2023-10-19*

This is a must-have. I am mad that Apple neuter their iPad. Thanks for taking the time to put this out in the world.

### 4/5 — Does what it says on the tin.

*2023-06-07*

Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that there isn’t an option to url encode the link when using a custom prefix. If this is added I’ll update to 5 stars :)

### 1/5 — Cannot get it to work on safari

*2023-03-01*

I have extension on Safari. It has been enabled. I’ve selected copy to clipboard, but nothing is being copied. Won’t paste anything. Tried for an hour.

### 5/5 — Not working(fixed)

*2022-10-11, version 1.2*

It wasn’t working, but I deleted and reinstalled. On a page with a link, click on the aA button and then on the Magnet Links to confirm the action. Exit, refresh, and click on the magnet link. G2go

### 5/5 — send link to aria2

*2022-06-01, version 1.2*

the extension will be super nice if support aria2, just like send to aria2 extensions for chrome and Firefox.

### 5/5 — Works

*2022-02-27*

Thank you to dev for this needed fix to safari.

### 1/5 — Can’t get this to work

*2022-01-11*

This app looked awesome but I can’t get it to work. In addition, there is a note that it can take your passwords off websites so be careful before allowing access.

**Developer response:** Sorry you are having trouble. I’d be happy to help but I need more details. Maybe refresh the page after enabling it?

The scary warning shows up for every browser extension on the App Store, which is why the code is open source on GitHub for anyone to read.
