About URL Shortener (@URLShortenerBot)
URL Shortener does exactly what its name says — it shortens any URL directly from Telegram, without needing to visit a separate link-shortening website. Send it a long link and get a shorter one back, ready to share.
Keeping this inside Telegram rather than switching to a browser-based shortener is a small but real convenience, especially for anyone who regularly shares links in chats and wants to keep them tidy.
A shortened link from a bot like this behaves the same as any other short URL — it just redirects to your original long link when clicked, with no extra steps or interstitial pages for whoever opens it.
Who is @URLShortenerBot for?
