Description

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

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

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 Media Cards to save even more time, and I'm a fan of the deeper controls Linky brings when compared to the default share sheet. I can't recommend Linky enough." - MacStories

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

Great Utility

ahcaz on

A fanatic, low-stress and long-running utility. Every time I’ve wanted it to fix one extra detail, I’ve discovered that Linky already does it. (ALT text in its generated text shots, posting to Mastodon). Highly recommended

Well designed app

Wesley Moore on

Linky is a great app that simplifies sharing links to Twitter and Mastodon. The developer is responsive and helpful. One of Linky's key features is using the post title to pre-populate the post text as well as making it super easy to browse and include images from the link in the tweet/status.

Works Well

Just as advertised. Nice extras, like choice of shorteners. Strange that Apple overlooked the option to include webpage titles with its implementation. But this solves the problem nicely.
