Un-Google Link

Extract the real destination from common Google redirect and tracking links.

Google Redirect URL → Direct Destination

Google Link
Paste a Google redirect or tracking URL below.
The direct destination will appear here...

What this tool removes

Some Google links wrap the destination URL inside parameters such asq or url. This tool extracts that embedded address when it is present.

It does not bypass login requirements, paywalls, access controls, or unavailable pages. It only unwraps the URL structure.

Un-Google link example

Google Redirect
https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com
Direct Link
https://example.com

How Un-Google Link works

The tool parses the pasted URL, checks whether it uses a Google hostname, then looks for common destination parameters such as q,url, u, and similar fields.

Embedded URLs are only decoded further when they are not already valid HTTP or HTTPS URLs, which helps preserve meaningful percent-encoding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the result sometimes match the input?

If the Google URL has no recognized embedded destination, the tool returns the original URL unchanged.

Does it work with normal non-Google URLs?

Yes. Non-Google URLs are returned unchanged.

Can it decode percent-encoded URLs?

Yes. It can unwrap an extra encoded layer when the embedded value is not already a valid HTTP or HTTPS URL.

Will the destination necessarily open?

No. Extracting a destination does not check whether the page is available. Any login, payment, or permission requirement still applies.

Can I open the direct result?

Yes. Use Open Direct Link after a valid HTTP or HTTPS destination is found.

Does editing the input keep the old result?

No. Changing the input clears the previous output so stale links are not shown.
