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

* Browser Mode: Set FixupXer as your default browser for automatic system-wide URL cleaning
* Direct Sharing: Share your links directly to FixupXer, no need to open the main app
* Privacy Protection: Removes 1000+ tracking parameters from all major platforms
* Fast Processing: Cleans any URL in under 0.1 seconds with advanced caching
* Offline Operation: Works completely offline - your URLs never leave your device
* Platform Support: Works with 25+ platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Amazon, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, Google Search, LinkedIn, Reddit, and more
* Smart Conversions: Optional conversion to privacy-friendly alternatives (fixupx.com for Twitter/X, facebookez.com for Facebook, and selectable Instagram proxies)
* History Tracking: Keep track of cleaned URLs with optional history feature
* Configurable Actions: Choose what happens after cleaning - open in app, browser, share, or copy to clipboard

Browser Mode Setup

1. Enable Browser Mode in Settings
2. Set FixupXer as your default browser in Android Settings
3. Configure your preferred post-clean actions
4. All web links will now be automatically cleaned before opening

Privacy & Security

* Zero permissions required - no internet, location, or personal data access
* 100% open source and auditable
* No data collection or transmission
* Works entirely on your device

Technical Excellence

* Modular architecture with 11 specialized URL cleaners
* Thread-safe design optimized for modern Android devices
* Material Design 3 interface with full Android 15 compliance
* Comprehensive test suite with browser-mode and URL-processing regression coverage

Perfect for privacy-conscious users who want cleaner, safer links without the tracking.

WhatsNew:

v1.5.1 — Unified Instagram proxy chooser

• Tap Change. on Main or Share to open the same proxy dialog (was Settings on Main)
• Removed the Instagram embed proxy section from Settings — single source of truth now lives next to where you use it
• Auto-reprocess: on Main, picking a different proxy after Process refreshes the Processed URL field automatically
• Fresh inputs still use the explicit Process URL button
• Existing users keep their selection; default remains toinstagram.com

Hint: This app is available in both, F-Droid Main and IzzyOnDroid repos.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.

Libraries:

Android Support v4 (Development Framework)
The Android Support Library is not actually a single library, but rather a collection of libraries that can roughly be divided into two groups: compatibility and component libraries. For details, please see Understanding the Android Support Library.
AndroidX Activity (Utility)
provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.
AppCompat (Utility)
support newer Android features on older Android versions.
Constraint Layout Library (Utility)
library to reduce the number of nested views needed.
Coordinatorlayout (UI Component)
AndroidX library to position top-level application widgets, such as AppBarLayout and FloatingActionButton.
Androidx Core (Utility)
a static library that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or utility APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs.
Android Emoji2 Compat (UI Component)
core library to enable emoji compatibility in Kitkat and newer devices to avoid the empty emoji characters.
AndroidX Fragment (UI Component)
AndroidX library to encapsulate part of the user interface or behavior into reusable components.
Lifecycle (Utility)
perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
Loader (Utility)
library to load data for your UI that survives configuration changes.
Preference (Utility)
a library to build interactive settings screens without needing to interact with device storage or manage the UI.
ProfileInstaller (Utility)
AndroidX library that enables libraries to prepopulate ahead of time compilation traces to be read by ART.
Room (Utility)
a persistence library that provides an abstraction layer over SQLite to allow for more robust database access while harnessing the full power of SQLite.
Recyclerview (Utility)
display large sets of data in your UI while minimizing memory usage.
Startup (Utility)
AndroidX library to implement a straightforward, performant way to initialize components at app startup.
Android Jetpack VersionedParcelable (Utility)
Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.
Google Material Design (Utility)
library to help with material design guidelines.
Dagger (Utility)
A fast dependency injector for Android and Java.
JavaX Dependency Injection (Utility)
specifies a means for obtaining objects in such a way as to maximize reusability, testability and maintainability compared to traditional approaches such as constructors, factories, and service locators (e.g., JNDI). This process, known as dependency injection, is beneficial to most nontrivial applications.
Kotlin (Utility)
The Kotlin Programming Language
kotlinx.coroutines (Utility)
library support for Kotlin coroutines.
Timber (Utility)
logger with a small, extensible API which provides utility on top of Android's normal Log class.
