LinkClean: Share Link De-Tracker for Android
Automatically strip tracking parameters from shared links on Android
- Problem
- Share links from many Android apps contain privacy-sensitive parameters that can even identify the sharer, but many apps don't use system share sheets, making existing de-tracking tools cumbersome. Users need an automated, frictionless way to clean links when sharing.
- Solution
- Use Android Accessibility Service to automatically capture share links when the user taps share, parse and strip tracking parameters, then show a secondary share sheet; support custom rules and detect/redraw QR codes in images that contain tracking links.
- Users
- Privacy-conscious Android users, especially those who frequently share content on social platforms
- MVP
- Accessibility service to detect share button taps and capture clipboard/share links; built-in rule library for common app tracking parameters with auto-stripping; manual edit and secondary share panel; support custom rule import
- Revenue
- Free basic features + paid premium rule packs (continuously updated app rules) or one-time purchase
- Why now
- Rising privacy awareness and mature Android accessibility APIs make automated de-tracking feasible; existing tools are either iOS-only or too cumbersome
