Description
In times of social networks and smartphones we use URLs all day. But they can be really long - too long! They neither look pleasant on our small screens nor in longer texts on big screens. They take away space - important space.
Short Menu solves this problem. It sends your long URL to a service of your choice, which then returns a short URL you can use instead.
Short Menu, its 2 Action Extensions and Today Widget support 16 different services (5 require sign-in) and is extremely easy to use. On launch it will automatically take the URL from your clipboard. You only have to press one button, then Short Menu will shorten your URL and automatically copy the short URL for you.
After shortening, Short Menu saves both the short and long URL in your history, which will be synced with iCloud to ensure you got all your short URLs on all your devices (even on your Mac if you're using the macOS version).
Short Menu perfectly integrates with bit.ly, Rebrandly, Google, Hive, tiny.cc, Droplr and CloudApp (for using Rebrandly, tiny.cc, Droplr or CloudApp, an account is obligatory). You can easily manage all your accounts in Short Menu's settings and, if you added multiple accounts for the same service, activate the account Short Menu shall use.
Got your own URL service? Short Menu can handle it. You can add as many custom services as you like. Short Menu can send both GET and POST requests, add HTTP headers and supports different encodings for POST requests. To avoid the need of entering the same information about your custom services again and again, they will be synced with iCloud.
TL;DR
• Lightning fast URL shortening with 16 services supported by default
• 7 of the default services and all custom services support custom keywords
• Use the two Action Extensions to shorten URLs system-wide
• Shorten URLs from anywhere using the today widget
• Add as many bit.ly, Rebrandly, Google, Hive, tiny.cc, Droplr and CloudApp accounts as you want
• Add an unlimited number of custom services
• Configure your own affiliate tokens and campaigns for iTunes and Amazon
• Copy and share any URL from your history
• Your history and custom services will be synced with iCloud
• Supports x-callback-urls for Launch Center Pro

Ratings and Reviews
Would be a great app.
I see others are writing the same, I’d like to test out the default features and then most likely buy it, but as others have said, the default Shortener doesn’t work
Great URL shortener, but the default service is not working
I've been using this URL shortening app for years. I saw some reviews post that it was not working. It looks like the default free URL shortening service is not working with the app.
For $.99, you can get access to all 8 shortening services that are built into the app. It's a cheap investment in case you want to try another shortening service, or if your preferred service is not working right. The developer should address the issue with the default service, or at least let you change to one that's working.
The best thing about this app is that all the shortening services work directly from the share sheet. So if you are viewing a particular website, you can open up the share sheet, click on "quick short", and a shortened URL will be copied to your clipboard. You also have the option of opening up the app and pasting in a URL to be shortened.
There are quite a few advanced services, such as affiliate link shortening, that are available in the premium service.
Love it
