Frequently asked questions

What link formats are detected?

Full http and https URLs with paths and query strings, plus bare addresses that start with www. so domains pasted without a scheme are still found.

Why is the trailing period or bracket removed?

Sentence punctuation that follows a link, like a full stop or a closing parenthesis, is trimmed so you get the clean address. Brackets that belong to the path are kept.

Can it remove duplicate links?

Yes. Remove duplicates is on by default and keeps only the first occurrence of each URL, compared without case sensitivity.

Will plain words be picked up by mistake?

No. Only text that starts with http, https or www. is matched, so ordinary words and sentences are ignored.

Is my text private?

Yes. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
