Frequently asked questions.

What is YOURLS?

YOURLS (Your Own URL Shortener) is a free, open-source tool that lets you run your own link shortening service on your web server. It gives you full control over your data and links.

Do I need my own server?

Yes. Quick.Link is a client app that connects to a YOURLS installation running on your server. You'll need a web hosting provider that supports PHP and MySQL.

Is Quick.Link free?

Yes, Quick.Link is free to download and use. There's an optional tip jar if you'd like to support development.

Can I use custom domains?

Absolutely. Since YOURLS runs on your own server, you can use any domain you own for your short links. Your branded short domain is set up through your YOURLS installation.

Is my data private?

Yes. Quick.Link stores your API credentials locally on your device. Your link data travels directly between your phone and your YOURLS server — we never see it.

How do I set up YOURLS?

We publish a step-by-step setup guide that walks through installing YOURLS on a typical Ubuntu server and connecting Quick.Link with your API keys.
