SHARE EXTENSION Clean URLs directly from Safari or any app's share sheet on iPhone and iPad. Tap share, tap Untracker, done. REDIRECT UNWRAPPING Extracts real URLs from tracking redirects like Google's /url?q=, AMP links, Facebook's l.php, and URL shorteners like bit.ly and t.co.

CLEANING HISTORY & STATISTICS A searchable log of cleaned URLs with page titles and favicons. Track total URLs cleaned, characters saved, top domains, most removed parameters, and daily activity. QR CODES Generate a QR code for any URL. Copy it to the clipboard, save it as PNG, or share it directly.
