Creating a shorter link on an iPhone is simple: copy the destination, open a URL shortener in Safari, paste the address and generate a short link.

Copy the full website address

Use Safari or another browser to copy the HTTPS URL of the page you want to share.

Generate the short URL

Open Shrtigo in your browser, paste the destination and tap Shorten Link. You can optionally choose a readable custom alias.

Check the destination

Open the new short link before sharing it. Make sure the redirect reaches the correct page and that the destination is trustworthy.

Share from iPhone

Use the iOS share sheet to copy or send the short URL through Messages, Mail or social apps. Add context so recipients know what they are opening.
