Have you ever wanted to make a list of your favourite apps? How about keeping track of the prices of apps that you'd like to buy? Appmarks allows you to bookmark apps you find on the App Store so you can come back to them quickly and easily! Say you've found an app you'd really like to buy, but can't afford it just yet. You can bookmark it with Appmarks and come back to it later! Current Features: - Share apps to Appmarks from the App Store share button. - Bookmark apps from App Store URLs on your Clipboard. - The Appmarks list shows the app name, icon, developer and current price. - Quick access to view the app on the App Store. - Create groups to organise bookmarked apps with a custom title. - iCloud support so Appmarks and Groups are synced across devices and not lost when you reinstall the app. I'm new to developing SwiftUI apps, so if something isn't working quite right or you have any feature suggestions, feel free to leave a review or send me an email.

LinkClean strips tracking junk from any link, so what you share is the clean destination — not a trail of who shared it, from where, and when. Paste a link and LinkClean instantly removes tracking parameters like utm_source, fbclid, gclid, and dozens more. You see exactly what was taken out and what's left, then copy a clean link with a single tap. CLEAN FROM ANYWHERE You don't have to open the app to clean a link: • Share Sheet — tap Share in any app, pick Clean URL, and the tidied link is on your clipboard • Safari — clean the link of the page you're on right from the toolbar, then copy it, copy as Markdown, or share • Shortcuts & Siri — clean links inside your own automations, hands-free • Control Center & Home Screen widget — one tap cleans whatever you've copied • Copy As… — plain, Markdown [title](url) with the page title filled in, or your own format • Clean & Share — clean the link and hand it straight back to the share sheet, so you can send it on without starting over CLEANING THAT GOES DEEPER LinkClean does more than trim the obvious tags: • Unwraps redirect links to find and clean the real destination • Strips trackers hiding after the # in a link • Expands short links too — turn on Short-Link Expansion and LinkClean follows bit.ly, t.co, and the like to the real page before cleaning it (free, off by default, and the only time the link itself is sent out — always your choice) SCAN & MAKE QR CODES • Scan a QR code to clean the link hidden inside it • Turn any clean link into a fresh QR code to share SEE WHO WAS TRACKING YOU Every clean shows a calm summary of how many trackers were removed — tap to see exactly which ones, and who set each one. utm_source was built by Urchin Software in 1996, years before Google bought them and turned it into Google Analytics. fbclid is Meta's, from 2018. Tap a leftover to strip it from now on. The Statistics dashboard adds it all up over time, with a privacy card you can share. MAKE IT YOURS • Turn the built-in tracker list on or off • Add your own parameters to always remove • Keep a searchable History of everything you've cleaned — copy, share, re-clean, or reopen any link, and tap one to see exactly what changed, before and after ONE PURCHASE, YOURS FOREVER LinkClean is free to use: unlimited cleaning, the Share Sheet and Shortcuts actions, one custom parameter of your own, and your last 7 days of History. LinkClean Pro unlocks your own copy formats, unlimited custom parameters, your full History archive, and a link library where you can save a cleaned link with your own note and pin the ones that matter — a single one-time purchase. No subscription, no account, nothing recurring. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Cleaning happens entirely on your device, and the full links you clean never leave it — not the path, the parameters, or any values. The one exception is Short-Link Expansion: turn it on and the link is sent out, to follow it to the real page. LinkClean uses only anonymous, aggregate analytics to learn which features matter; the one thing it notes about a cleaned link is its site domain (like youtube.com), never the full link. See the privacy policy for the full picture. Built for iOS 26 with a fast, native, Liquid Glass interface. — Privacy Policy: https://ken0nek.com/apps/linkclean/privacy-policy/
