Share the destination—not the tracking. LinkSoap removes unwanted query parameters from links before you share or open them, while preserving the destination you chose. Use it from the Share Sheet, copied text, Shortcuts, Control Center, or as your iPhone or iPad default browser, which can also forward unmatched links there as well (passthrough). CLEAN LINKS ANYWHERE • Optionally make LinkSoap your default browser to apply your rules when you tap links in Messages, social apps, email, and more. • Or use CleanShare or CleanOpen from the iOS Share Sheet to remove tracking and open the link or show it in a new Share Sheet [Pro]. • LinkSoap Preview from the LinkSoap icon on the iOS Share Sheet compares original and cleaned links and previews the cleaned link in the ad-free Share Sheet without opening the full app [Pro]. • CleanBrowse continues in LinkSoap’s lightweight private browser with Save, Share, and Open in App controls. • Clean copied links with in-app clipboard detection or optional CleanClipboardShare and CleanClipboardOpen Shortcuts [Pro]. • Extract links from mixed text and choose between multiple detected URLs. CONTROL WHAT STAYS • Start with a useful catalog of domain rules. • Group related domains such as youtube.com and youtu.be under one rule. • Enable or disable rule groups, individual domains, and individual allowed parameters. • Clean unmatched links globally when you want broader coverage. • Configure www matching globally or for each domain. • Export portable .linksoaprules backups for free, then review imported changes before applying them [Apply requires Pro]. UNWRAP THE REAL DESTINATION • Follow shortened-link redirects with an ephemeral background session to discover hidden tracking parameters so cleaning is robust. • Resolve canonical page URLs when a site publishes them to aid cleaning. • Compare the original, redirected or canonical, and final cleaned addresses. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Browser previews use nonpersistent website storage. • Rules, preferences, saved links, and entitlements apply to LinkSoap’s Share Sheet extensions on your device and not just the full app. • Share extensions contain no advertising SDK. MAKE CLEAN LINKS A STREAK The optional Activity view shows daily, weekly, monthly, and trailing-year totals for links cleaned and parameters removed. Sync aggregate daily totals through your private iCloud database so they remain portable across devices signed in to your iCloud account. LinkSoap never stores or syncs URLs, domains, parameter names, or browsing history for Activity. CHOOSE YOUR WORKFLOW Recommended, App Store Default, and Custom profiles make setup easy. Route unmatched links to LinkSoap, Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Brave, or Edge when installed and leave them untouched unless Clean All is selected (not in default or recommended settings). Save cleaned links for later, choose from three soap-themed icons, and use adaptive layouts across iPhone and iPad. LinkSoap also supports Designed for iPhone/iPad operation on Apple Vision Pro. LinkSoap’s full app is supported by adaptive banner ads in the free, non-Pro verison. A permanent Ad-Free purchase removes ads. LinkSoap Pro removes ads and unlocks Quick Actions, Share Preview, automatic workflows, and Rules Import Apply. A 21-day trial unlocks all current features without automatically renewing or charging, and you can make permanent purchases any time during the trial. Redirect and canonical resolution contact the destination website, which can receive normal connection metadata. Browser selection and associated-app availability depend on the apps installed on your device.
