Where does that short link really go?
Paste a short link. We follow every redirect and show you the destination before you click.
How it works
- Paste a short link from a post, mail or chat.
- We follow every redirect from our server, not from your browser.
- You decide whether the destination is worth a click.

The unshortly Chrome extension resolves short links the moment you click them and takes you straight to the destination.

Questions
Yes. No account, no ads, no limits on what you check.
Any http or https link. The popular shorteners above are just examples; tracking links, newsletter links and plain redirects work too.
Yes, our server requests every hop, including the final page, so your browser does not have to. Avoid checking one-time links such as login or unsubscribe links: requesting them can use them up. Preview images are loaded by your browser directly from the destination site.
No. Links are resolved on the fly and not stored by unshortly.
The link may be dead, the service may block automated requests, or the chain may loop. You will see the hops we managed to follow before it stopped.
No. It shows you where a link goes, not whether you should go there. Read the destination domain carefully before you open it.
