How to Use miji.be

Just paste a URL. Shortening, suggestions, and QR code generation happen automatically.

Paste a URL

Paste a URL into the input field and a short URL is generated automatically. You can also use the Paste button to pull a URL directly from your clipboard. Both http and https URLs are supported.

Customize

Once generated, a smart short code is automatically suggested and applied. You can also edit the short code manually. Set an expiration (presets from 1 hour to 1 year, or a custom date/time) and password protection with a single tap.

Copy and share

Hit the copy button to grab your short URL and share it right away. A QR code and OGP preview are displayed automatically, so you can verify the destination and use the QR code in print materials on the spot.
