Bitly | Short links and QR Codes
Description from store

Connect with your audience and drive more viewers to your content with Bitly’s powerful connection platform. Create short links and QR Codes right from any page.

Shorten links with one click
Click the Bitly button in your toolbar to create a unique link to the current URL. Your shorter, more memorable link is copied to your clipboard and ready to paste into a post, message, or document.

Customize for click-worthy links
Is that bit.ly link too generic for you? Customize it by editing the back-half. Then take it to the next level by upgrading your account and replacing the generic "bit.ly" domain with your own brand.

Generate QR Codes
Create QR codes for print, outdoor, and other ad campaigns. With Bitly, a static QR Code will never get stale—just redirect it when your content changes.

Bit.ly is a fast and reliable URL shortening service that's perfect for organizing and sharing links efficiently. The Google extension makes it incredibly easy to shorten URLs with just one click, saving time and keeping things tidy. It works seamlessly on school-issued Chromebooks, making it an excellent tool for students and teachers alike.

New and working well

Pavlo Kalach 2024-03-05

now you can only get few short liks for free. why use this site if there are tons of others?

Cornelius Pang 2024-03-04

I met with an error message that says "extension not working." After poking around and hitting a blank wall, I signed up for new Bitly account using another Google email account. Problem solved. It seems that each Bitly account comes with a fixed quota of shortened links. Once that has been reached, it stops working.

Broken. "An internal error has occurred. Please try again!" each and every time. Searched this as a problem, followed the instructions, same. Erased the extension, killed cookies and caches, killed Chrome keys, erased Chrome including all of the preferences and redownloaded. Re-added the Chrome extension and "An internal error has occurred. Please try again!" Maybe this needs fixing? It worked fine a month ago.

While love this extension it has stopped working, click it and it does nothing

EDITED 06.May.2023 - Hooray, everything is fixed! 5-star again! EDITED 14.Nov.2022: They fix one thing and break another. Now you CAN exit the plugin with an outside click and with Esc, however the auto-copy function does not work, even though there is a setting for it. Overall, very useful plugin, I use it at least 20 times a day.

需要登入、取得一個縮網址的步驟太多(ICON -> Create link -> copy) 不如這個,可以一鍵完成 https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bitly-url-shortner/epdgnnildheopikdpdooanjlafgndmmk?hl=zh-TW

This bitly extension used to be my favorite, but now it won't work at all. I've used bitly over 10 years, but the extension quit working last week. Tried removing, clearing browser cache, logging out of browser (and back in), closing browser, reinstalled. NOTHING. It prompts me to log in but does nothing when I click on the Log In button. :(

When I attempt to sign in with my Google Account the screen pops up that asks me to sign in even though I'm already signed into my Google account. This is suspicious phishing behavior. The screen provides no visibly on the URL I'm in. It could simply be a fake screen.

I have used bitly forever and loved it. Just tried to use the extension and it says I have to log in but I can't click the "log in" button. Even when I'm logged in from the site I get the same popup when I click the extension that I have to log in... but there's nothing to log into. Please fix!

Doesn't work. Click the button, get the popup to login, enter correct details (fresh pwd reset too), nothing else happens. Refresh page, try again, same thing. Waste of time.

I would give it a 5 stars but after that april (2022) update that rendered my extension from collecting titles as well. Might sound tacky but I work quick and loved that feature of the extension. Please bring it back asap.

Used to work well. I usually copy the title of the webpage along with the shortened URL when using it, but in the latest iteration, not a single site has come up with the title available to copy. A minor inconvenience to be sure, but I'm not sure why they would have chosen to break this functionality.

Right-click feature has been disappeared from the extension after upgrading to the latest version. Now, this is not useful to our company at all.

I used it in the past but today it really decided to f... me. First, it requires that I login and honestly I don't see any reason for that, just to get links shortened. Second, while logging in, it opens a window where I should enter some credentials or log in using OAuth. And when I click on Google, the window just closes leaving the ext in not-logged-in status. So basically if I click it again, it just opens that window again. Third, I went and logged in to there website directly: https://app.bitly.com/ But it didn't help the extension to figure out the session! Amazing! What the heck? Have you even tried to test your extension?

bitly không hoạt đông :P mình xoá đi xoá lại không được :(( :P:P:P:P:P:P

Warum muss man sich auf einmal registrieren um die Erweiterung nutzen zu können? Früher brauchte man das nicht! Auf der Webseite braucht man das auch nicht. Habe Bitly bisher sehr gerne verwendet, aber so... es gibt auch andere alternativen ohne Registrierung!

Matthew Jacobson 2021-12-11

Initially, this extension was a LIFE SAVER. I am a producer at news station, so I use bitly all the time to share articles on social media. However, it appears there's a limit on how many links you can shorten using the extension. Just 10 days into December, I am unable to use the extension, and a notice pops up saying "You've created too many Bitlinks this month." This is really confusing because I am able to create as many bitlinks as I need using the bitly website. I also didn't see there was a monthly limit on the description of the extension, so I feel a little misled about its capabilities.
