LinkScope: URL Inspector

LinkScope helps you inspect a link before you open it. Paste a URL or share one from another app to see where it points, how it redirects, and what basic network signals are visible.

Use LinkScope to:

- Preview the final destination host
- See each redirect step in order
- Check whether the link starts with HTTPS
- View public DNS answers for the starting host
- Review common HTTPS security headers
- Notice URL patterns that may need a closer look, such as embedded usernames, IP-address hosts, encoded domains, and unusually long links
- Copy or open the final URL after reviewing the report

LinkScope is designed for everyday link checks, support messages, shared URLs, newsletters, and pages you want to review before opening in a browser. It keeps the report readable and avoids technical clutter while still showing the evidence behind each signal.

Privacy-conscious by design:

- No account required
- No analytics SDKs
- No camera, location, contacts, or notification permission
- The last report is stored only on your device for quick recovery
- Optional feedback is sent only when you choose to submit it

Important note: LinkScope shows inspection signals. It does not guarantee that a website is safe, and it does not replace your browser, security software, or judgment.

Recent changes:
Links that contain special characters are now read correctly.
Two unrelated websites that share an ending like co.uk are no longer treated as the same site.
Sharing a new link to LinkScope while it is already open now checks that new link.
