Don't like those tracking GET queries from the big brothers? Here, this app got your back.

Features:

Cleanup URLs when opening link
Sharing URLs to this app also cleans the URL

How to use:

Opening a link: Simply open the link with this app first, and choose the app you want to use to open the link afterwards.
Sharing a link: Share to this app first, and choose the app you want the link to share to afterwards.
Adding missing GET query(ies): Open the app, fill the query in, then tap on "Add Entry" button.

(Note. Wildcard is supported since 1.3.0, check default entries for usage)

How it works:

This app handles Android intent to open/share link, so the app can get the URL and modify it, get rid of those dirty query and create another intent for your original action.

Download 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).
