Comments on Goo.gl URL shortener for Android

★★★★★ Works as Promised, A+ Your app works well, thanks! Would it be possible to implement a plugin or something, so that it automatically shortens a URL as soon as I copy it to the clipboard? Because honestly, when does anyone ever copy a URL that couldn't benefit from shortening? I would greatly appreciate this feature, and happily pay for such an app.
★★★★★ Functional Works well, but only in portrait mode. Could also be improved if short url was generated automatically.
★★★★★ Does what it claims Good aPP. Does what it says it does and does it well. UI is nice and clean. Will buy paid version. @Developer - would be AWESOME if you had the option to predefine and then append a string to a URL (like UTM parameters for Google Analytics) before shortening.
★★☆☆☆ Rubbish Can't even simply shorten a single YouTube URL without giving an error and not generating anything. Wasting my time!!!!
★★☆☆☆ Not fit four purpose Not possible to edit URLs while entering which renders it useless.
★★☆☆☆ Don't bother downloading on your Nexus 10 It crashes every time you try to see your links history.

Description by EireApps Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Goo.gl is Google's URL shortening tool. It allows you to put in a URL and returns a reduced size URL linked to your original URL.

This application utilizes goo.gl for in App URL shortening and allows you to share the resulting link via any share App on your phone, such as facebook or twitter.

You can link your Google account to the App so that generated URL's are added to your link listings at http://goo.gl for tracking. This is optional, by default generic goo.gl links are generated that are not attached to a specific Google account.

You can pass Links/URL's from other applications into this app, shorten them and share them through other apps e.g. facebook, twitter etc.

If your Google account is linked you can view previously created goo.gl links and the click stats of those links. You can also click any previously created link and share it from the stats page.

The app also generates a QRcode of the resulting shortened URL and allows you to share this also through email, facebook or any other sharing app as well.

If you have any problems please let me know the issue and I will get it fixed.
