FAQ

Frequently Asked
Questions

Everything you need to know about using LinkSnip to shorten and share URLs.

A URL shortener takes a long web address and converts it into a shorter, more shareable link. The short link redirects anyone who clicks it straight to the original destination.
Yes, completely free. There's no signup, no premium tier, and no hidden limits. Shorten as many URLs as you need at no cost.
No. LinkSnip works entirely in your browser without any registration. Your shortened link history is saved locally on your device.
Short links created through LinkSnip are powered by is.gd, a reliable public shortening service. Links remain active indefinitely as long as the service is running.
Yes. Every shortened link has a QR code button next to it. Click it to open a scannable QR code you can screenshot or share.
Your recent links are stored in your browser's localStorage and never sent to any server. Only you can see them, and you can clear them at any time.
A small number of websites or spam filters block known URL shortener domains as a precaution. For those cases, use the original long URL directly.
