Share links here from other apps
Android
Install this site (Chrome menu โ Install app). "xcwds" then shows up in the share sheet; pick it and the link opens here already cleaned.
iPhone
iOS doesn't let web apps into the share sheet, so use a Shortcut instead:
- In the Shortcuts app, tap + to make a new shortcut and name it.
- Open its settings (โ) and turn on Show in Share Sheet. Set it to receive URLs and Text.
- Add the URL Encode action with Shortcut Input as its input.
- Add Open URLs and set the URL to
https://xcwds.com/utils/url-sanitizer#url=followed by the URL Encoded Text variable.
Then share any link to that shortcut. The link stays on your phone โ everything after # is never sent to a server.
Known tracking params are removed automatically; tap a checkbox to put one back. Edit a name or value to change it. Everything happens in your browser โ links are never sent anywhere.
