About

Linkrinse

Features
Read full description

Linkrinse removes tracking parameters from web links before you share them: one link, every link inside a message, or up to 200 links at once. It leaves the parts that make a link work alone, and everything happens on your device. NEW IN 2.0 - Share sheet: tap Share on a link or selected text in any app and choose Linkrinse. The cleaned link or text is ready to copy or share without leaving that app. - Text with links: paste a whole message, note or email. Every web link inside is cleaned and the rest of the text stays exactly as written. - Site rules for 12 services: YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music and Podcasts, X, Instagram, Threads, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, Reddit, Amazon and eBay. Share trackers such as YouTube and Spotify "si" are removed only on the sites where they mean tracking. - Your own rules: an Always remove list (end a name with * to match a prefix) and a Never remove list that wins over every rule. - Shortcuts and Siri: a Clean Links action returns the cleaned link or text for your own automations. - A larger built-in tracker list: all utm_, pk_, mtm_ and hsa_ parameters plus fbclid, gclid, gbraid, wbraid, msclkid, ttclid, twclid, yclid, li_fat_id, mkt_tok, HubSpot and Mailchimp IDs, srsltid and more. ONE LINK Paste or type a link and tap Inspect. Linkrinse shows the cleaned link, lists exactly which parameters were removed and which site rule applied. Copy or share the result. BATCH - Paste up to 200 links, one per line, and give the batch a title. - Name any parameters you always want kept, and choose whether to also remove ambiguous referral keys such as ref, source and campaign. That option is off by default because these keys can change what a page shows. - See every original next to its result, with a note for each line: what was removed, why a link was left unchanged, or why a line was rejected. - Select the results you want, then share them (with optional de-duplication) or export a before-and-after report. - Save a batch on your device to reopen it later with the same settings and selections. WHAT IS KEPT - Anchor fragments (#section), the order and exact encoding of the remaining parameters, and the link's http or https scheme - Signed or access-token links (X-Amz-Signature, signature, token, key…) are left completely unchanged so download links keep working - Links containing a user name or password are rejected instead of cleaned EVERYTHING INCLUDED One purchase, no subscription. No account, no ads, no analytics. PRIVACY Links are processed on your device. Linkrinse never opens, fetches, previews or uploads them, and it reads the clipboard only when you use the Paste button. Your rules and saved batches stay on this device. GOOD TO KNOW Linkrinse does not include a Safari extension. It does not follow redirects, expand short links, convert AMP pages or remove affiliate codes. The share sheet uses the built-in rules; your custom rules apply in the app and in Shortcuts. Removing parameters can occasionally change how a page behaves, so keep the original if in doubt.
