Description

Linky lets you easily share webpage links, images and text extracts to Twitter and Mastodon from your iPhone and iPad.

Write your post, choose which preferred social networks and Linky will do the rest! You can connect Linky to Twitter and Mastodon.

Linky's very own iOS Share Extension allows you to post messages without ever leaving third-party applications.

Want to share a webpage Link? Linky can insert both the url and the title of the webpage as required. Linky will suggest images related to shared links and can attach them to your messages. It can also shorten links, giving you access to further link analytics.

How about selected text in Safari? Linky's Web Clipper extracts selected text and carries it over to the composer sheet, ready for you to edit. You can also make a text shot from the text selection for sharing as a beautiful image.

What about a great photo? Share images easily from Photos app and third-party applications. You can also preview the shared image in fullscreen before sending it.

Share any text too! Bring up the extension, the text is copied in the message, edit if required and share. It's that simple.

Use Markup to annotate, crop and edit images inline. Write or draw on the attachment, or add arrows and lenses, or obscure sensitive information.

"Linky 5.0 removes friction from sharing links, quotes, and images. I appreciate the intelligent use of Open Graph and Twitter Cards to save even more time, and I'm a fan of the deeper controls Linky brings when compared to the default share sheet of Twitter. I can't recommend Linky enough." - MacStories

"Linky turbocharges sharing links and images to Twitter from Safari or other apps supporting iOS extensions." 4/5 - Macworld

@benoitsan hi Benoit! I've been working on adding Linky to my repository collecting iOS apps for Mastodon and noticed that the Dropbox link to the press kit appears to be broken. is there any way I could grab that from you?

Hi David, thank you for adding Linky. Here is a working link. Note that the press kit might contain not up-to-update info. https://t.co/QrC79nTgmT

releaseNotes=- Added support for new iPhone (late 2020) screen sizes.
- Added support for new Photos privacy permissions introduced in iOS 14.
- Added support for extracting the text, links and pictures from Twitter tweet URLs.
- In order to have more transparency with clipboard usage, Clipboard Detection is now an opt-in preference that you can enable by going to “Settings > Clipboard Detection”.

Like before, these checks only happen on your device and the clipboard content is not sent anywhere. Linky will ask if you want to turn on the feature when upgrading to this version.
# OTHER
- Fixed a bug where the title and the picture could not be extracted from YouTube URLs.
