Intuitive with One (Minor) Flaw
App does exactly what it says it does with no extra fluff or frills. It just works and that’s pretty refreshing these days. However, to the developer: when opening a cleaned link in browser I noticed it goes straight to Safari and this can’t be changed. I use Chrome as my default browser—never touch Safari. Being able to select your browser, or bare minimum have the app use the browser the user has selected as their “default browser” in their iPhone settings seems like a simple update/implementation. My two cents!

I stumbled upon this one after reading an online article. It does exactly what it says and nothing else: cleaning links, and automatically copying the cleaned link so you can maximize productivity. You can set it to monitor your clipboard and automatically clean any links that it comes across. Definitely easier, faster, and more convenient than using a website-based link cleaner.

Works great. Killer feature is the optional, automatic clipboard monitoring!
I was looking everywhere for a safari extension that automatically strips out tracking junk from links. I searched and saw this one but it didn’t mention that it has a feature to automatically monitor your clipboard and automatically clean links! This is your killer feature and I would add an image preview for it! Great app!
