Doesn’t work

Tied of wasting my time on apps that say they do something but don’t. Go to Tinyurl’s website instead; it’s easier - just paste your link = shortened url, simple. To this app that seems to be an alien concept.

Please Let Us Pay You For Updates!

Seriously. I would pay $5 if it meant this was updated regularly with extra features. I really just need an app that I can connect my own domains to and use to shorten links. I like YOURLS, but it needs a modernistic touch to todays capabilities with links. Example: Replug.io & Switchy.io

Please! If you have the knowledge and know how to create an app like this one, make it the best it can be and I’m happy to pay! I check the last update timeline before downloading apps and frankly, none of them except Bit.ly are regularly updated. So please, if it means paying to help support you and this app, I will happily!

Let’s Connect! Find me on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc @RayAtCyberdine maybe we can work together and earn some money. I’m a well versed & connected marketer.

There is a market for an app like this!

New user with no instructions

Downloaded app, once opened there are no instructions on how to proceed. Could not choose New account. I also entered url and then custom code, and nothing. It’s not user friendly to non tech wizards.

Works okay

Can’t beat free, but I’d pay extra for some of the bugs to get fixed and maybe more features.
