Overview
Shrink‑a‑Link — turn any long URL into a bite‑sized TinyURL in one click
Tired of pasting mile‑long links into emails, chats, slide decks, or social posts? Shrink‑a‑Link lives in your Chrome toolbar and instantly converts the page you’re viewing into a clean TinyURL—then copies it straight to your clipboard so you can paste it anywhere. No clutter, no ads, no waiting.
Why you’ll love it
Lightning‑fast
Click the icon and the shortened link is on your clipboard before you can say “Ctrl + V.” No pop‑ups or extra steps.
Custom aliases (optional)
Right‑click any page and choose “Shrink with custom alias…” to claim a memorable shortcut like tinyurl.com/YourAwesomeLink.
Always at your side
Stays tucked in the toolbar—no intrusive UI, no background bloat. Uses Chrome’s modern Manifest V3 for lean, secure performance.
Privacy‑minded
Requires only the minimal permissions needed to grab the current tab’s URL, talk to the TinyURL API, and copy text to your clipboard. That’s it.
Works where you work
Perfect for teachers, marketers, students, support reps—anyone who shares links in docs, LMS platforms, social media, newsletters, or chat apps.
How it works

Need a vanity link? Right‑click the page, pick “Shrink with custom alias…,” type your alias, and you’re done.
