# How to shorten links with an added Link Ad on iPhone or iPad

| Updated September 11, 2025

1. Install the [**Rite.ly iOS app**](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rite-ly-link-shortening-with-cta/id1221148688)
2. Paste the URL of the page you want converted to a Rite.ly URL in the app's URL field and choose the Link Ad you want to use on the URL
3. Copy the Rite.ly URL and use anywhere

||| Note that for links shortened with Rite.ly, Facebook and LinkedIn will not accept them. This is beyond our control; FB and LinkedIn are now blocking all short links created of full URLs. So, if using RiteForge, RiteBoost for scheduling posts, we suggest that you do not shorten links for posts you schedule to LinkedIn or Facebook. If just using Rite.ly, even with custom subdomain, please use them in Tweets, emails, IG comments - and everywhere else - just not in FB or LinkedIn.
