Shorten any page in one click
On a computer, drag this button to your bookmarks bar. When you are on a page you want to share, click the bookmark — hi4.in opens with the link ready to shorten.
Bookmarks bar hidden? Press Ctrl + Shift + B (Windows) or ⌘ + Shift + B (Mac). On a phone, copy the page link and paste it above instead.

Questions
Is this URL shortener really free?
Yes. You can make 5 short links a day without signing up, each with a QR code. A free account adds click stats, your own link names and a monthly allowance.
Will my visitors see ads?
No. hi4.in links go straight to your page. We do not show ads or waiting pages on any link, free or paid.
Can I change the link later?
Links made without an account cannot be edited. If you might need to change where a link goes, create a free account first and make the link from your dashboard.
What does the + at the end do?
Adding + to a hi4.in link (hi4.in/abc123+) opens a preview page that shows the real destination and our safety check, without opening the site.
Why was my link refused?
We refuse links that look like phishing — for example fake bank or KYC pages — and links to hi4.in itself. If you think we got it wrong, contact support.
