Everything you need to lock a link
One panel to create, publish and manage your locked links.
Lock a URL or secret text

Image or YouTube cover
Show an image or an embedded YouTube video on the unlock page — and as the cover in the feed.
Built for Telegram
Every link works as a web link and as a Telegram Mini App link. Post to your channel in one click.
A smart public feed
Links with a title and cover appear in a feed ranked by real unlocks, freshness and community reports.
Short, clean links
Links look like linkdevs.netlify.app/abc123 and work on phones, tablets and desktop, in light or dark mode.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is LinkDevs?
LinkDevs lets you lock a destination URL or a piece of secret text behind a short list of tasks. Visitors complete the tasks, then the content is revealed. Links that have a title and a cover are also shown in a public feed so people can discover them.
What features does LinkDevs have?
Locked URLs and secret text, tasks with timers and platform presets, an image or YouTube cover, one-click posting to your Telegram channel, short link codes, site search, a report system, public unlock counters, a ranked discovery feed, and Google-friendly pages (title, description, sitemap) for links that have a title.
How do visitors unlock a link?
They work through the tasks in order. Each task opens its page in a new window and shows a countdown. When every task is done, the locked content appears.
Do the tasks verify real subscriptions or follows?
No. A task confirms that the visitor opened the page and waited for the timer. It does not check whether they actually subscribed or followed on the other platform.
How is the feed ordered?
For you is a weighted shuffle: links with more unlocks today rank higher more often, new links get a temporary boost, links you already opened appear less, and heavily reported links sink. Your order stays the same while you scroll and changes when you press Shuffle or reload. Trending ranks by unlocks today, New by publish time and Top by all-time unlocks.
What do the unlock numbers mean?
An unlock is counted only when a visitor finishes every task and the content is released. Opening or refreshing the page does not count, and the same visit is never counted twice. On the home page each post shows its total unlocks, and the +N today figure counts only the unlocks made today.
Why is a link not shown in the feed or in search?
The feed and search only list links that have a title and description (Search & SEO), which requires turning on Enable Media with an image or YouTube video. Links without them still work, but only for people who have the code. If a link's image or video is deleted, private or can no longer be loaded, it is hidden from the feed automatically.
How do I report spam, scams or a link that does not work?
Open the link and press Report on the unlock page, or on the page shown after unlocking. Choose a reason: spam, scam, malware, illegal content, copyright, broken link, or something else. Each person can report a link once, and reports are anonymous. The number of reports is shown on the link, for example 3/30.
What happens when a link gets many reports?
Reports are reviewed in the admin panel, where a link can be dismissed, disabled or deleted. Once 30 different visitors have reported the same link, it is deleted automatically, together with its Telegram post. A disabled or deleted link shows "Link incorrect or expired" and disappears from the feed and search.
What are link codes and how does search work?
Every link ends with a short code, such as the BzaEzd in linkdevs.netlify.app/BzaEzd. Type a code or paste a full link into the box at the top of this page to open it directly, or type words to search by title and description. Codes are case-sensitive.
Do visitors need an account?
No. Anyone with the link can unlock it, and anyone can create a link. Editing, deleting and managing links requires a PIN.
Are there ads?
The unlock page can display advertising from third-party networks. The Privacy Policy explains what that means for visitors.
