Linkrinse
Read full descriptionHide full description
Linkrinse removes common tracking parameters from web links before you share them, one link at a time or up to 200 at once, while leaving the parts that make a link work alone. ONE LINK Paste or type a link and tap Inspect. Linkrinse shows the cleaned link and lists exactly which parameters it removed. Copy the clean link or share it. 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 si, ref, source and campaign. That option is off by default because these keys can change what a page shows. - Inspect the batch to 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 the selected links (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, and delete it when you no longer need it. WHAT IS REMOVED All utm_ parameters (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign and the rest), fbclid, gclid, dclid, msclkid, mc_cid, mc_eid, igshid, vero_conv and vero_id. Ambiguous referral keys are removed only when you turn that option on in Batch. 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, for example links with X-Amz-Signature, signature, token or key parameters, are left completely unchanged so download links keep working - Links containing a user name or password are rejected instead of cleaned PRIVACY Links are processed on your device. Linkrinse never opens, fetches, previews or uploads them, and it reads the clipboard only when you tap Paste. No account, no ads and no analytics. GOOD TO KNOW Linkrinse works inside the app; it does not include a share extension or a Safari extension. It does not unwrap redirect links, convert AMP pages or remove affiliate codes. Removing parameters can occasionally change how a page behaves, so keep the original if in doubt.

ClashBoard is a native iOS dashboard for a Mihomo, Clash or sing-box core that you already run yourself — on a home server, a router, or a VPS. It is not a VPN. ClashBoard installs no network extension and carries none of your device's traffic. It connects to your own core's external controller, shows you what that core is doing, and lets you change it. NO SERVER? START WITH THE DEMO A complete simulated core is built in, one tap from the first screen. Traffic, nodes, connections, rules and logs — all of it running on the device, opening no connection of any kind. You can see the whole app before you configure anything. WHAT YOU GET Overview — live upload and download, charted separately so upload is still visible when it runs two orders of magnitude below download. Total transferred, active connection count, and which hosts are busiest right now. Proxies — every node group, with latency. Switch a group's selection or latency-test the whole group. Delays that read zero are shown as untested rather than instant, because that is what a core actually means by zero. Connections — every open connection, searchable by host, IP, process, chain or rule. Per-connection throughput, computed by differencing the core's cumulative counters. Tap for full detail: route chain, matched rule, destination, source process, DNS mode. Closed connections are kept for half an hour, so a connection that ends while you are reading it does not simply vanish. Rules — your whole rule set in evaluation order, searchable. Logs — the core's log stream, live. BUILT FOR iOS Real UITabBarController navigation, Liquid Glass on iOS 26, and a list that holds still: nothing is ever ordered by a value that changes while you are looking at it. MULTIPLE SERVERS Keep as many as you like and switch between them. Addresses stay on the device; secrets are held in the iOS keychain. PRIVACY No accounts, no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising identifiers, no third-party SDKs. ClashBoard collects nothing about you. REQUIREMENTS A Mihomo, Clash or sing-box core you run yourself, with its external controller reachable from your iPhone. Plain http over a local network is expected and supported.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: ClashBoard at Free against Linkrinse's $1.99. ClashBoard also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
