What are shortened URLs?

Shortened URLs are services that compress long URLs, like bit.ly, t.co (Twitter), tinyurl.com. While convenient, they hide the real destination and may be used for phishing. Unshortening reveals the true URL.

How do I unshorten a URL?

Paste the short URL and click Expand. The tool follows HTTP redirects and displays the final destination URL with a safety indicator.

Is this tool safe to use?

Completely safe. All expansion happens in your browser via HTTP HEAD requests—no third-party services are involved. Expanded URLs are never stored or recorded.

Which URL shorteners are supported?

All HTTP redirect-based shorteners are supported: bit.ly, t.co, ow.ly, tinyurl.com, goo.gl, is.gd, buff.ly, and more. Any service using 301/302 redirects will work.
