Trackless Links: URL & PiP

Cleaner URLs, fewer trackers

Features & Capabilities

Strip tracking from every link you tap. Watch YouTube in Picture-in-Picture. Force links open in Safari, not the installed app. Quietly powerful. Limited time offer!

Tired of messy links full of tracking codes? Trackless Links cleans every link, blocks trackers, and puts you back in control of Safari on iPhone and iPad.

CLEAN LINKS. ZERO TRACKING. Every link you click or share gets cleaned automatically. No more utm_source, fbclid, or gclid following you around the web. Share links without the tracking baggage.

KEEP LINKS IN SAFARI (NEW) Sick of taps that bounce you into Instagram, X, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Pinterest, or Spotify? Switch on Open in Safari for any site and links stay where you want them: in your browser. Add your own domains too. All off by default.

SMART REDIRECTS THAT SAVE TIME Skip annoying middleman pages. Redirect Twitter/X to XCancel, Reddit to Old Reddit, YouTube to Invidious, Google Maps to Apple Maps, and more. Build your own rules with plain text or regex. Over 20 privacy-focused redirects built in.

SOURCE CREDIBILITY: KNOW BEFORE YOU CLICK Trackless Links warns you when you visit sites flagged for misinformation, fake news, or conspiracy theories. Powered by CRED-1, an open peer-reviewed dataset of 2,672 domains.

• Five independent signals: editorial classification, watchdog ratings, web prominence, domain age, safety checks • Tiered banners: high (red), elevated (orange), moderate (yellow) • Dismiss per site or navigate back with one tap • Optional CRED-1 auto-updates keep the dataset current • 100% on-device, no browsing data leaves your phone • Off by default, enable in the Credibility tab

BROWSER TWEAKS THAT ACTUALLY WORK Take back control of annoying site behaviors: • Block autoplay videos and audio • Picture-in-Picture on any video, including YouTube on the free tier (swipe up, lock the device, or long-press the video) • Force text selection on protected pages • Lock playback speed across sites • Hide cookie consent banners (experimental) • Force dark mode on any website • Remove zoom restrictions on mobile sites • Reduce distracting animations

WHY USERS LOVE IT Cleaner URLs are shorter, safer, and easier to read. Redirects save clicks every day. Archive access via Wayback Machine recovers deleted content. Everything runs locally on your device, no accounts, no servers, no data collection.

REAL PRIVACY, NOT JUST PROMISES No analytics. No tracking. No cloud processing. Every feature runs entirely on your device. Your browsing data never leaves your control.

SYNC EVERYWHERE WITH iCLOUD Set up once, use everywhere. Filters, redirects, and tweaks sync automatically across all your devices.

User Reviews

This app handles some tracking. However, it would be more helpful to handle others like awstrack.me that encode the target URL. Including URL decoding for that portion of the link would make this app very useful.

Alex has developed a fantastic extension here and it’s well worth the price for how many great features he’s packed into this (frankly I’m amazed). It does so much more than remove tracking parameters and I couldn’t be more pleased.

I’m not too sure what I’m doing but the dev made it super simple and has all major things already set by default which helps me so much!! I’m obsessed!!
