SafeReelsX - Siri Shortcuts

This Shortcut is designed to enhance privacy by stripping the tracking code added to Instagram Reels and X/Twitter URLs when shared.

Send links directly from the Share button or copy to the clipboard and run SafeReelsX. It removes the appended tracking data, ensuring the link is clean.

After processing, the clean URL is automatically copied to clipboard. If the clipboard method was used, SafeReelX will also offer the option to open the cleaned link.
