What's New in URLStrip
1.4.4
October 27, 2026
URLStrip 1.4.4 improves the Share Extension on compact iPhone screens and includes the Reddit privacy and update-control improvements from 1.4.3. • Share actions now remain readable and accessible on compact displays, with Copy, Share, Share Both, and More kept directly available. • The Share Extension now respects safe areas, uses a shorter action tray, and stacks status and redirect details so they are not clipped. • Supported Reddit /s/ share links can be resolved only when you explicitly choose the labeled network action. • Resolution uses a bounded, ephemeral cookie-free request and fails closed to the cleaned Reddit URL when the destination is unsafe, unavailable, or cannot be verified. • Privacy Redirects remain off by default. The signed bundled catalog keeps both Redlib services paused, so no bundled Redlib destination is eligible and Reddit links are not silently substituted. • Settings places Privacy Services Updates after Rule Updates, with automatic checks plus manual Check Catalog and verified-update-only Install controls. • Additional reliability and accessibility improvements.
