This app acts as an intermediate step towards opening url links. When you click on a link and choose this app to open it, it will show a dialog with some information about the link. Specially useful when you need to open an external link either from an email, from a social network app, or similar.
The app was for personal use, but shared to others can benefit from it. It is free and without any ads, as small as possible and using as few permissions as possible (only the internet permission, for the redirection and VirusTotal modules). The source code is available on GitHub too, in case you want to suggest or even add new modules to the app: https://github.com/TrianguloY/UrlChecker
It was developed using a modular setup, you can enable or disable individual modules:
* Input text: Displays the current url, which can be edited manually. Can't be disabled.
* Redirection: By pressing the redirect button a petition will be made to retrieve that url. If the result is a redirection, the new url will be replaced (can be undo). The url is fetched, but not evaluated, so redirection based on javascript won't be detected.
* VirusTotal analysis: When this module is enabled you can scan the url using VirusTotal and check the report. A personal VirusTotal API key is needed for it to work. VirusTotal™ is a trademark of Google, Inc.
* Ascii checker: Checks for non-ascii characters like greek letters. This can be used for phishing: googĺe.com vs google.com
* Open module: Contains the open and share buttons. If a link can be opened with multiple apps, an arrow will be shown to let you choose. Can't be disabled.
