Url Shortener for Google Chrome™
Description
Reviews (50 cached)
Used to be great, now it’s unusable. This tool now hijacks redirects with a 9-second ad preview page. It’s no longer the efficient tool it used to be. Deleting and finding an alternative.
Incorrectly reports "?url-parms" as "INVALID URL" (when, in fact, they aren't invalid). Sometimes it takes too long to "load" a shortened URL. (Spins & reports "Loading ... ") Including the HTTPS:// in a shortened URL only makes it longer
didnt work
My link is not working.
not working, it says, invalid URL
Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Ok, thank you, but this extension is unfortunately useless.
It worked fine when I installed it. Now, it just thinks..................
same - it USED to work, what happened? I am removing it from Chrome
Spinning...and more spinning - useless
The Picture For It Is Literally A Stock Image With The UI Photoshopped Onto It
This extension takes forever to generate a shortened link. Someone needs to revisit the code.
It never worked. ... I installed it again and again... never did the job... just waiting and waiting ... a real waste of time
Does not work for me. After few minutes still tries to create short url. Tried several times.
it does not work!
Too slow to execute…
almost no work. Stupid extension!!!
Waste of time...just loads and loads and loads....
This is ribbish....just does not work so removed it. AVIOD
It was working before, but now it doesn't.
so bad
Just tried it out. And after five minutes it still hasn't shortend anything. Uninstalling.
slow, slow, slow, never finishes
too slow
Slow to nonresponsive is the best I can get
Super slow and therefore useless
Not working in Brave spinning for ever
I've installed, uninstalled, and re-installed. It still doesn't work. I thought maybe it was just slow (as other reviews stated), but over two minutes later it is still spinning.
stopped working
GENIAL
It works well, but the UI is terrible.
worked for a while now it just sits in loading....
first i use it, its do normaly but the other time its toooo slow
This extension constantly fails to load. It was good at one time but unfortunately is useless now.
It works maybe 1/3 of the time. Very frustrating!
Super slow. Just spins around and around. Not useful at all. May be okay if it was quicker to load.
Worked for few months and then stopped working.
This extension used to work fine. It no longer does. It just thinks and thinks and thinks, but never gives a shortened URL anymore. I uninstalled it.
At first, I liked it. Now, very slow and often does not work.
Used to work great however it no longer works AT ALL.
it takes a LONG time to generate a shortened link. WAY too long. I'll update my rating if I find this was a one-time anomaly, but right now it's unusasble.
It worked well enough for months, and all of a sudden it stopped working.
Pretty nice extension, but it's not creating a QR code for the shortened URL, which is the main reason I installed it.
NOOO😭 I CANT SEE THE QR CODE AGAIN
Works well but I don't like the UI, so I created an extension that lets you shorten and copy URLs without a popup: URL Shortener - TinyURL Extension. Let me know how it works for you
For some urls works fine
I echo Giulia Melilli comments; Useful, but very slow and sometimes doesn't work. If you change the panel, you gotta start again: so you have to just stare at it hoping that it's actually working and not stuck. Have not tried the website
Super useful, but slow and sometimes doesn't work. If you change the panel, you gotta start again: so you have to just stare at it hoping that it's actually working and not stuck. The website works better.
processing speed is somewhat slow
Doesn't copy the URL to the clipboard automatically. You need to find the icon inside the popup and then click on that, which is just annoying. I want it to automatically copy the short URL to the clipboard when I click the icon on the toolbar (and never see the big popup with the QR code).
It is okay but SHort url should be more short. for eg.'https://tinyurl.com/y4a99ku6' becomes too long for share and who will call this a short link. I put my opinions. Thank you.
