I made a PWA that can quickly remove tracking variables called Link Cleaner. If you install it through Chrome or another Chromium browser on Android, it shows up as a share target, so you can share links to Link Cleaner and then share again to the intended target.
I don't understand how to install it. Looked in Google Play store but didn't find it there.
It's a PWA, which basically means it's just a website. If you're using Firefox on mobile opening up the website won't ask you to install it.
When you’re in Chrome or another browser, there’s an install option in the main overflow (three dots) menu.
