FixupXer removes tracking parameters from URLs to protect your privacy and make links cleaner. When you share links from social media, shopping sites, or other platforms, they often contain hidden tracking codes that follow you around the internet. FixupXer strips these away.
Key Features
* Private Link Guard: Warns when e-mail addresses, auth tokens, or precise coordinates remain visible in a link — sensitive originals stay out of history and cache, fully cleaned results are kept as redacted entries
* Browser Mode: Add, edit or delete frontends for seven platforms, including TikTok and Instagram. Save applies all frontend changes; Browser and Main/Share selections stay separate. Choose a preferred browser to avoid repeated selection, or save per-host app choices. Copy, Share and Open receive the same processed URL; failed actions stay local for Retry.
* Direct Sharing: Share your links directly to FixupXer, no need to open the main app
* Clean Link from Selection: Select a URL in any app and choose "Clean link" to clean it in place
* Privacy Protection: Removes documented tracking keys across 26 host-bound platform cleaners; unknown functional parameters are kept so links do not break
* Redirect Unwrapping: Extracts real destinations from Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google Ads, Reddit, Bluesky, GeoRiot/Geniuslink, and LinkSynergy/Rakuten wrappers — entirely offline
* Local Processing: Clean links on your device with bounded caching
* Offline Operation: Cleaning makes no network requests; Open/Share hands the result to the external app you choose
* Platform Support: Works with 26 platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Amazon, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, Bluesky, Bilibili, Google Search, Google Maps, LinkedIn, Reddit, Spotify, Wikipedia, and more
* Smart Conversions: Optional per-platform conversion to embed-friendly alternatives (fixupx.com, fxbsky.app, selectable Instagram and TikTok proxies) or account-free reader frontends (xcancel, Nitter, SkyLib, Redlib, and more), with custom domains for every platform — all pickers reachable anytime from Settings
* Custom URL Rules: Build ordered offline rules with host or regex scopes, multiple processing phases, Test Lab previews, per-rule test vectors, Teach-from-example drafts, templates, and JSON import/export
* History Tracking: Optional local history with Undo that restores the original entry and timestamp
* Private Clipboard Previews: Copied URL contents are marked sensitive for system previews where Android supports it
* Configurable Actions: Choose what happens after cleaning - open in app, browser, share, or copy to clipboard
* Backup and Restore: Export settings, Browser frontend choices, preferred browser, custom rules, and saved app choices with schema v2; older backups still import safely
* GitHub Guides: Open detailed Browser mode and Custom URL rules instructions from the How to Use links

Technical Excellence

* Thread-safe design optimized for modern Android devices
* Redesigned Material Design 3 interface with full dark mode and a System/Light/Dark theme picker

* Comprehensive test suite with browser-mode and URL-processing regression coverage
Perfect for privacy-conscious users who want cleaner, safer links without the tracking.
