It's easier to use than before. When you want to shorten, you no longer need to copy, change to this app, then paste into it before telling it to shorten. Once you copy the long URL, shortening is now "automatic", and the shortened version goes to the clipboard. You'll get dialogs to help as you use it. You might want to use a clip stack, as well. {Apologies for a low rating, early March 2017.}

Go w/ this one. Simple, thoughtfully developed, reliable, friendly, & intuitive. Best. I so appreciate that it grabs the title of news articles when sharing them!! It's sooo easy to use & saves a history of shortened urls which makes them very easy to access & share again later. Rocks for sharing in twitter apps. Kudos to developers.

A True Gem, My go to application for URL shortening I have been using this application for a little over 8 months now and it has really won me over. There are many similar rivaling apps on the Play store but in my view few of them (if any) come close to providing such a satisfactory experience. This app offers a rich set of features like 'Clipboard monitoring' , 'Automatic URL extraction', 'Automatic Day/Night mode', 'large number of providers' and more that are seldom found in competing apps. There are one or two small bugs I noticed but nothing major that hinders your productivity and hence doesn't warrant knocking any stars in my opinion. Highly recommend it as a must have app in your productivity arsenal. I hope the developer takes notice and fixes this small bug I noticed on my device: The App crashes whenever an individual entry in the history list is 'Deleted'. Its a bit frustrating as there seems to be no other way to 'Clear History' items all at one go. Hopefully this gets fixed soon

It's a good app for shortening links. But why I need to connect to internet every time to see previously shortened links? It can be shown without internet (From Last Sync.). Also, please add an option to see thumbnails of shortened links. Thanks!
