It does what is says! Get it now! This is more than just for twitter or face-book, this can be used for just about any URL! ＼(^o^)／

Great! But
I cant copy the URL so fix that and then it would make this app awesome. (^_^)

Almost...
Couple things. 1. Add a one button copy. 2. Add a share button (SMS, twitter, etc.) 3. Multiple shortener services. 4. Make a paid version without ads.

Not quite ready for prime time
This app does precisely what it claims to do which is the reason Ive rated it as highly as I have. That said, the app is incomplete. It needs 3 things and once it has them, itll be a 5 star app no question. First it needs the ability to use your own bit.ly username and API key. Thats why I shorten URLs. So I can track their performance. Second it needs to support more than one shortener. Theres nearly a dozen I can think of off the top of my head but the point is that the lack of alternatives to bit.ly are a weakness for the app. Finally, it needs a history function where you could pull up links and track them. Its not bad for a first try, but it could be so much better. In fact, once these features are added, I see no reason why they couldnt charge for the app. At that point, Id certainly be willing to pay for it.
