The Ultimate URL Sanitizer (Swiss Army Knife for Privacy).
PureLink is a powerful, lightweight, and accessibility-first Android utility designed to strip tracking parameters from URLs, expand shortened links, and provide essential tools for developers. Wrapped in a high-contrast Terminal/Hacker style interface.
- Deep Cleaning: Instantly removes tracking tags like
utm_,fbclid,gclid,si, andreffrom shared links. - Smart Unshortener: Safely expands shortened URLs (e.g.,
bit.ly,is.gd) in the background to reveal the true destination before you visit. - Bot-Proof Resolver: Uses advanced User-Agent spoofing to bypass server-side bot protection when resolving links.
- Clipboard Guard: Runs silently in the background to detect and clean copied links automatically.
- Quick Settings Tile: Toggle the monitoring service instantly from your notification shade (Quick Settings) without opening the app.
- Haptic Feedback: Vibrates to confirm when a link has been cleaned or processed.
- Local History: Added a secure, local history log (last 10 links) with instant "Copy" and "Open" actions.
- Dynamic Rules Engine: The app now silently fetches updated tracking filters from GitHub every week via
WorkManager.
- Invisible Share Target: Sharing a link to PureLink now triggers a transparent activity that cleans, copies, and closes instantly without disrupting your flow.
- In-Place Text Cleaning: Select any text or URL system-wide -> Click the context menu (3 dots) -> Choose "Pure Link". It will instantly clean and replace the link right where you are typing!
