What's New

Top level domain names now displayed for each link to make it clear how the links are displayed in alphabetical order.

FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS:

A BETTER ORDER
AMP cards now appear before AMP frames giving you easier access to the original URLs.

URLs are sorted according to their short host name so that, for example, www.callionica.com and callionica.com URLs appear next to each other.

Popular link blog daringfireball.net is now treated like a search engine so external links are selected.

More URLs are recognized as uninteresting so that they're not selected by default.

CLIPBOARD URLS
The Links from Callionica extension now displays any URLs that it finds on the clipboard.
Clipboard URLs are shown at the top of the list, unselected by default, labeled with the word Paste, and sporting a clipboard icon.

BETTER SUPPORT FOR REDDIT
Links selects some of the links it finds in a page by default. The goal is to save you time so that you don't need to select or deselect links individually in many cases. For search engines we've always prioritized external links. In this version of the app, Reddit and a couple of other link-heavy sites are treated like search engines: external links are selected by default and internal links are not selected by default.

CANONICAL LINKS
The canonical link for a page is its true identity. We now show the canonical link for a page at the top of the list, unselected, and marked with a pushpin.

AMP FRAMES
Certain sites embed several AMP pages in one of their own pages. If you attempt to use the browser to share an AMP page that you reached through a site like this, you may find that you're actually sharing the search engine's page instead of the specific publisher page you intended. With Links from Callionica, you can easily get access to the individual page link you need by looking for an AMP Frame entry at the top of the list.

AMP + VIDEOS + FEEDS
AMP is "Accelerated Mobile Pages". Some sites (including the Guardian and the BBC) hide links to smaller, faster AMP pages in their regular pages. You can easily find and share links to the AMP pages using Links from Callionica. AMP pages will appear at the top of the list marked with a lightning bolt.

If the page contains a video, a link to the video will appear at the top of Links from Callionica. This makes it really easy to open just that video in Safari (or your preferred player) giving you access to features such as Picture in Picture on recent iPads. Videos are marked with a clapper board icon.

If the page refers to a news feed (RSS/Atom), a link to the feed will appear at the top of Links from Callionica. Now you won't have to wonder if a site supports feed subscriptions and you'll have the link you need right there so you can copy it or send it to your feed reader app. Feeds are marked with a satellite antenna icon.

Want to open multiple pages at once in Safari? Want to add multiple pages at once to Safari Reader? Got other apps that accept links, and need a good way of getting a bunch of URLs to them in one go? Links from Callionica is the solution you're looking for. It lets you do all that and more.

We've also improved the display of the links. We decode URL query strings so that it's even easier to see exactly what information they contain.

App Description

Links from Callionica is a Safari extension that makes it easy to share links with other applications and services. For example, if you're on a web page that shows headlines and you want to add all the linked articles to your reading list in one go, you can use Links from Callionica to quickly select the URLs and pass them on to Safari Reader in one batch. Or you can open multiple pages in Safari really quickly.

Links is also a great way to get access to the original URLs for AMP pages you find through popular search engines.

* Links from Callionica extracts and shows you the links from the current web page
* It displays the link text and a readable URL for each link
* It removes duplicate URLs from the list
* It sorts URLs so that similar links appear next to each other in the list
* It categorizes links as more interesting or less interesting
* It puts interesting links at the top of the list
* Links that look less interesting go at the bottom
* Interesting links are selected by default
* Uninteresting links are not selected by default
* You can add an item to the selected links by tapping it
* You can remove an item from the selected links by tapping it
* You can share all the selected URLs in one go by tapping the big Share button at the top of the list
* You can share any individual URL by tapping the small Share button for that item
* It remembers which URLs you deselected and won't select them again in the future

Here are some apps that we know can handle being sent multiple URLs in one go:
Safari Reader, Messages, Mail, Multiverse from Callionica, Soccer Aloud from Callionica, READS from Callionica

You may need to share each link individually with other apps until they can be changed to handle multiple URLs. But even if you're sharing individual links, Links from Callionica makes the process faster and easier.

In addition to standard links you see on the page, Links from Callionica shows the following special link types:
* Clipboard URLs
* Canonical links
* RSS/Atom feed links
* Video links
* AMP pages
