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: Clean eligible HTTP(S) links Android routes to FixupXer, with optional privacy reader conversions for X, Bluesky, Reddit, and Pinterest and per-host saved app choices
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, custom rules, and saved app choices to a local JSON file and restore them safely
GitHub Guides: Open detailed Browser mode and Custom URL rules instructions from the How to Use links

Browser Mode Setup

Enable Browser Mode in Settings
Set FixupXer as your default browser in Android Settings
Configure your preferred post-clean actions
Eligible links Android routes to FixupXer are cleaned before your chosen action; verified App Links may bypass the default browser

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 26 host-bound domain cleaners, one universal cleaner, and curated offline redirect unwrapping
Thread-safe design optimized for modern Android devices
Redesigned Material Design 3 interface with full dark mode and a System/Light/Dark theme picker
Targets Android 16 (API 36) with edge-to-edge display support
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:

Removes Instagram's current stkn share identifier and the older ig_rid tracker from Instagram and recognised/custom frontend links. Existing igsi, igsh and igshid cleaning remains active. Carousel selectors, unknown parameters and fragments are preserved. Includes regression coverage for the reported Reel URL and Android Main/Share processing.

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

Download Metadata Source Issues ChangeLog

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. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).

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.
