CleanURL Tap removes tracking parameters from links before you send, save, or post them. iOS blocks some known tracking, but copied links can still contain UTM campaign tags, affiliate tags, ad click IDs, and long shop parameters. Paste a URL or a whole block of text and CleanURL Tap cleans every link while leaving the rest of the text unchanged. WHAT IT DOES - Shows removed parameter names as crossed-out tags - Cleans all URLs inside text at once - Works from the share sheet and Shortcuts without opening the app - Cleans Amazon, Rakuten, eBay, Etsy, AliExpress, social, and general links - Keeps product choices such as variant, size, color, and quantity - Lets you choose which cleanup categories are enabled PRIVATE BY DESIGN Link cleanup happens only on your device, with no account, advertising, analytics, or link history. Only when you tap Check destination does the app contact the allowed short-link service once, without opening the destination page. See the destination domain and the full URL with tracking removed using your cleanup settings, then copy, share, or choose to open it. Chained short links may require up to 3 service checks, with a retry if needed (up to 6 requests). The short-link service can record your IP address and the time, as with a normal link click.
