Open Link With: Redux APK

Open Link With: Redux

Overview

• Open Link With: Redux is a revived successor to the original application by Said Tahsin Dane.

• Following the removal of the original app from the Play Store in 2024 due to outdated Android SDK compliance, this version has been fully updated to support modern Android standards.

Functionality

This utility allows you to seamlessly share web pages from any browser to a target application of your choice.

• Link Routing: Once you share a URL to the app, a selection dialog appears, allowing you to choose which installed application should handle the link.

• Home Screen Integration: For frequently accessed URLs, use the Add to Home Screen feature to create a direct shortcut to your favorite link.

• Native App Support: The app includes logic to detect and resolve links for many popular Android platforms, ensuring that shared URLs open in their respective native applications rather than a browser.

Data Privacy and Permissions

• Transparency is a core principle of this project.

• The app requires internet access solely for the following purposes:

+ Submitting crash reports via Firebase Crashlytics.

+ Collecting anonymous feature usage statistics via Firebase Analytics.

+ Resolving the final destination of shortened URLs.

+ Fetching page titles when adding shortcuts to the home screen.

• We are committed to user privacy and never store or collect the specific links you share through the application.

Open Source

• This application is fully open source, promoting transparency and community contribution.

• You can inspect the codebase, report bugs, or contribute to further development through our official repository: https://github.com/SamLeatherdale/OpenLinkWith/
