About LinkSwipe

With LinkSwipe, you can configure different actions to be performed when you tap and swipe a link in a non browser third party application.

Five possible gestures can be configured:
•Default (single tap)
•Tap and swipe left
•Tap and swipe right
•Tap and swipe up
•Tap and swipe down

For each each gesture you can configure LinkSwipe to do one of these actions:
•Launch browser
•Share link with an app
•Open a share app chooser
•Copy link to clipboard
•Cancel the link - so that no action is performed

The free version is limited to 2 gestures: default (single tap) and Tap and swipe left. Purchase PRO for unlocking all 5 gestures.

Please note that the gesture is a tap and swipe and not just a swipe.
You can calibrate LinkSwipe using the calibration screen. Follow the instructions on this screen to calibrate the time for which LinkSwipe will wait for a swipe before going for the default action.

Features:
•6 Configurable actions for different tap and swipe gestures
•Calibration feature to customize the delay
•Optional prompt when LinkSwipe is ready for swipe

Does exactly what it says. Great feature set. Never had any bugs or issues.

E70%
by E####:

Constantly asks me to choose as default even though I have about 100 times. Great otherwise

W70%
by W####:

but so far works quite well. Really useful as I often want to send something to Pocket instead of reading it immediately. Speeds this up a lot.

U70%

Love this

L70%

I used tappath before but it didn't work. And now using this awesome app it does exactly what I want thanks developer

U70%
by U####:

Great idea. Thanks for the option to show when it is ready for swipe. Now I don't forget I have it. Now I just forget which direction does what. Lol

Takes the hassle out of links.

Não está funcionando no Android Marshmallow.

Much better implementation than TapPath! Not sure if I need it though...

U70%
by U####:

It would be nice if it also works in browser app.

W70%
by W####:

Doesn't work with TinyTinyRSS app (my primary use case) - displays "Invalid activity" message upon swipe. Does this app only work with browser/WebView-based links?

Y70%
by Y####:

I'd really rather have an app for one-gesture-shares of already opened webpages. Needing to go back one page to actually use linkswipe pretty much nullifies all convenience this app provides. It does precisely what it promises, don't get me wrong, it's just - in case I pay for it - I'd wish it were doing a bit more.

R70%
by R####:

This works fairly well except that in almost all of my apps it always asks me to select the default app and only lists LinkSwipe. Every single time I choose the "Always" option and not "Just Once", but the prompt still comes up each and every time. If it wasn't for that, this app would definitely get 5 stars.

U70%
by U####:

This app is very useful for quickly choosing which browser to open a link with, or if I want to push it with Pushbullet without adding any extra steps if I just want to use my default. Developer was very quick to fix the issue I wrote in my review previously and other than that, the app has given me no issues.

by W####:

This is exactly what I've been looking for to get around the mess Marshmallow made with default sharing option. Unfortunately, when I click on a link in Gmail and swipe to open the share chooser menu, the link instead opens in Web Video Caster, which doesn't have any defaults to clear. Galaxy S6 6.0.1

by D####:

It is a must have app if you use several broser/apps to open links. It works great with Flynx. Kudos to dev for his excellent response to bugs.

Couldn't calibrate. Nothing is happening when I click on set default link in the calibration settings.

DOES ANY OF U GUYS KNOW WHERE TO GET Tappath AND WHY DID IT DISAPPEAR FROM THE PLAY STORE

D70%
by D####:

So much more reliable than tappath, which seems to have been pulled from the store

T70%
by T####:

I used tappath before but it didn't work. And now using this awesome app it does exactly what I want thanks developer

D70%

Provide at least 2 swipes free.

Great work dev!

P70%
by P####:

good app for those who trade with link

Y70%
by Y####:

Works as described

D70%
by D####:

Every time I click a link, the app itself launches before the action is taken. This is default settings on Nexus6p. Happy to change review if dev can explain why this is happening and fix. Would be 5 star if it worked.

Use this app constantly. Great response from the Dev when I had problems with it with marshmallow. Just remember to give the app permission to draw over other apps if you are on Android 6.

D70%
by D####:

Enable it in Apps >> Settings(sprocket-icon) >> Draw over other apps. This makes it work like it used to! Superhandy!

C70%

Works great in tandem with flynx, and any other browser. Share and copy/paste feature great aswell.

Doesn't work

M70%
by M####:

Really great app. Works with most links. However I'm having trouble in Firefox and chrome with hyperlinks. Are they not supported?

M70%
by M####:

Especially useful when you have several browsers, like flynx and chrome

T70%
by T####:

One of those things that I just stumbled onto and instantly wondered how I ever managed without it.
