Scan shortened & hidden links, uncover trackers & redirect chains with 100% privacy. No middleman servers logging or monitoring your scans.
CHECKurl App
Your Smart Shield for Privacy Protection and Link Inspection
The CHECKurl app is the leading tool to protect you from the dangers of shortened, anonymous, and suspicious links. The app inspects links in an isolated and secure environment, tracking the chain of redirects and forwards to uncover the true final destination directly from your device, without any intermediary monitoring your privacy or collecting your data.
100% Absolute Privacy: Your inspected links are never uploaded or stored on our cloud servers. All geographic matching, component analysis, and certificate parsing are performed locally and instantly on your device.
Key Features of the App
• Full Redirect Chain Detection: Detailed tracking of every redirect step, accurately uncovering server response codes and latency times.
• Smart QR Code & Barcode Scanner: Use your camera to decode links offline, with support for importing images from your photo library for instant inspection.
• Brand Mimicry Detector: A smart engine that compares domains locally against a list of major brands, banks, and services to detect fake websites (Typo-squatting).
• Payment Gateway & Platform Detection: Analyzes website code to automatically detect payment gateways (mada, Visa, PayPal, Tamara) and e-commerce platforms (Salla, Zid), while injecting trust parameters.
• Local SSL Certificate Analyzer: Extracts full encryption certificate data (issuer, validity, encryption strength) directly from your device.
• Local Tracker Detection Engine: A built-in detector that scans the target website's source code to uncover over 120 tracking tools and social media pixels.
• Geo-IP Hosting Verification: A built-in local engine that determines the actual server's hosting country and displays its flag offline using an embedded database.
• Interactive Behavioral Verification Guide: An extra behavioral check that asks about how you received the link and its purpose to detect fast-evolving social engineering scams.
• Scan History & Visual Reports: Manage your previous scans and share them with friends as a premium, glassmorphism-designed security report card.
