Linky lets you easily share webpage links, images and text extracts to Mastodon and Bluesky from your iPhone and iPad. Write your post, choose your preferred social networks and Linky will do the rest!
Share From Safari
With just one tap of the Action button in Safari, you can share the current page using the embedded composer sheet without ever leaving Safari. You can also share URLs directly from other third-party apps via the Share Extension.
Share Text & Images
Share images easily from the 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 into the message, edit if required and share. It's that simple.
Content-Related Images
Linky suggests images related to the webpage and can add them to the message.
Web Clipper
Linky's Web Clipper extracts selected text from a web page and carries it over to the composer sheet, ready for you to edit.
Text Shots
You can make a text shot from the text selection in Safari for sharing as a beautiful image.
Shortening
Linky can insert both the URL and the title of the webpage as required. It can also shorten links, giving you access to further link analytics.

They talk about Linky
Linky 5.0 removes friction from sharing links, quotes, and images. I appreciate the intelligent use of Open Graph and Twitter Cards to save even more time, and I'm a fan of the deeper controls Linky brings when compared to the default share sheet of Twitter. I can't recommend Linky enough.”
Linky turbocharges sharing links and images to Twitter from Safari or other apps supporting iOS extensions.”

Frequently asked questions
Why are Facebook and Twitter no longer supported?
Facebook and Twitter integration had to be removed from Linky. Facebook and Twitter have reevaluated the integration of third-party applications into their platforms and no longer allow Linky. We had no alternative but to remove Facebook and Twitter from Linky. Learn more about Facebook and Twitter removals.
