What's new in Linkhiver
New features ship almost every week. Here's what landed recently.
- Pro
Two more animated backgrounds
Brushed Steel is a machined surface under one cold light, with iridescence crossing it. Petal Fall is the first light scene in the library — blush, with petals drifting down in two planes. Both sit in the Wallpaper library beside the photos and the video clips, and both scale down cleanly to the picker tile, so you can tell them apart before you choose.
- Pro
Your buttons can be made of something
Shape and colour used to be the whole story. The Buttons panel now has a Material row: Metal gives your links a polished steel surface with a highlight that travels down the list, and Porcelain lifts them off the page on a soft shadow tinted from your own button colour. Material is separate from shape, so metal pills and porcelain squares both exist. The eight shapes and both colour pickers stay free.
- Pro
Three new Pro themes
Liquid Chrome is polished metal: a five-stop ramp on your buttons with a highlight travelling down the list. Petal Drift is its opposite — blush porcelain, with petals falling in two planes behind your links. Hazard Tape is the loud one: a stamped site badge swinging on striped tape over a page that otherwise holds perfectly still. The eleven free themes are untouched, and a theme you already saved renders exactly as it did.
- Improved
See the badge your page carries
Every free Linkhiver page ends with a small “Join on Linkhiver” mark. It has always been there, and until now the only way to meet it was to open your own page in another tab. The Links page now shows it to you at the bottom, exactly as a visitor sees it, with the switch that governs it. Pro turns the mark off; on every other plan the page keeps it, which is part of how Linkhiver stays free.
- Improved
Turn off session recording without an account
We record how the dashboard is used — where people click, where they get stuck — to find the parts that do not work. That has always been listed in the privacy policy with a switch in Settings, which is no help to someone who does not have an account. The pricing page's footer now carries the same Cookie preferences dialog, product-analytics switch included, so anyone reading that page can turn it off there and then.
- New
Your bell now carries your page's news, not just ours
Until now the bell only ever held product announcements from us. It now tells you when your own page reaches something: your first real visit, your tenth, the first tap on any link, and the first tap on a WhatsApp or call row. Each one arrives once, and views are counted after bots are filtered out, so the first one means a person.
- Improved
Your page's QR code, ready on the QR page
The QR page used to open on a form for making a new code, while the code most people want — the one that opens your page — was tucked inside the share panel on your Links page. It is now the first thing on the page: the code itself, your address beside it, and two downloads — a ready-made card to print or post, and the bare code as a PNG. Scans from either are counted as visits from your QR rather than filed as traffic from nowhere.
- Improved
Paste a link, press Enter, it is on your page
Adding a link used to mean pasting a destination and then walking through a screen of settings before anything landed. Paste one now and the card offers Save straight away — Enter does the same thing — with the type detected and a title suggested for you. Details is still there when you want the full form, and every check that used to run still runs: a link we cannot reach opens the fields with the problem showing rather than saving quietly.
- Improved
Subscribers, requests, Instagram and referrals are one section now
Three separate sidebar rows did one job between them: bring people in, and answer the ones who arrive. They are now tabs of a single Marketing section, the same way Settings works, so moving between your subscriber list and your WhatsApp requests no longer means going back to the sidebar. Every old link still works — bookmarks land on the right tab rather than a missing page.
- Improved
Grab a link anywhere on the card to move it
Reordering your links used to mean hitting a handle about twenty pixels wide, which is a small target on a phone and easy to miss entirely. Press and hold anywhere on a card now and it lifts. The handle still works and still starts instantly, so nothing you already do has changed — and on touch, a scroll flick is still a scroll, not an accidental drag.
- New
Your monthly report, without signing in
Your monthly summary now has a page of its own that opens straight from the email, with no login screen in front of it. The link is yours alone and stays valid rather than expiring in an hour, so opening the mail days later still works — and you can revoke it. It exists because a login screen between someone and their own numbers is the most common reason those numbers never get read.
- Improved
The theme picker is a carousel now
The Design editor's themes used to sit in a flat block you scrolled past. They are now a carousel that brings the selected theme forward, so comparing two is a swipe rather than a scroll and a squint. Same themes, same free and Pro split — this changes how you choose, not what you can choose.
- New
A share panel, and two images made for you
Your Links page has a share panel: copy your address, send it straight to WhatsApp, Telegram or X, or open your phone's own share sheet. It also builds two images you can download — a story-shaped one for Instagram and a card with your QR code on it. Both are drawn in your browser from your own name, address and code, with no wording baked in, so they work whatever language you post in.
- Improved
Two buttons instead of a filter you did not use
The Links toolbar used to carry an All / Active / Hidden filter. It is now two buttons that open what they count: Enhance shows what could be improved on your page, and Tips shows ways to get more out of the links you already have. Each disappears when it has nothing to say, so a page with no findings shows neither — and hidden links still appear in the list with their own badge, so nothing became harder to find.
- New
Your free QR codes can be changed after you print them
Every QR code on your Linkhiver page is dynamic: it points at linkhiver.com/qr/… rather than straight at the destination, so you can re-point it long after the poster is printed, and every scan is counted. Five of them are free. That is the thing most QR tools charge for — Uniqode's free tier is static codes only and dynamic ones start at $9 a month billed yearly. We put both side by side under Compare, along with Bitly, whose free plan keeps no click history at all. One row goes against us and it is in there: Bitly's free plan mints more new links over a year than ours does.
- New
See your Linktree as a Linkhiver page, before you sign up
Paste your Linktree address into our new importer and it reads the public page and lays every link out the way a Linkhiver page would. Nothing is saved anywhere and you do not need an account to look — it is there so you can decide with your own links in front of you instead of from a screenshot of somebody else's. If you like what you see, claiming the page takes about a minute and the links come with you. It is at linkhiver.com/tools/linktree-importer.
- New
Three answers your analytics could not give before
If your page carries a request block, a funnel now shows how many people submitted a request and how many went on to open WhatsApp — free, on every plan. It counts the chat being opened, never that a message was sent, because that part happens somewhere we cannot see. On Pro, an active-hours chart shows when your visitors actually arrive, read in your own timezone rather than in ours, and you can now pick any two dates instead of the fixed ranges. Free keeps the last 30 days.
- New
Put your opening hours on your page
Add an Opening hours block on your Links page and your page carries your week: one row per day, an opening and a closing time, or Closed. Day names appear in each visitor's own language. It sits on your page as a section people open rather than a button, so a full week of hours costs you one row instead of seven. Free on every plan, and like every other block it counts as one of your links.
- Pro
Each business card can be its own person now
Your cards used to borrow your profile header — the same photo, name and bio on every one of them. On Pro, a card can now carry its own picture, name and bio, so the one you hand out at a conference does not have to say what the one on your invoices says. Leave a field empty and it keeps inheriting your profile header, which is exactly what every card does today and what free cards go on doing. One thing worth knowing: when a card has its own name, that is the name that lands in someone's phone when they tap Save contact, and the one on the Apple or Google Wallet pass.
- New
We compared ourselves with the three biggest business card apps
Your free plan already holds two digital business cards, five QR codes and ten short links — and a lot of people pay a second subscription for a card without knowing it. So we put Linkhiver side by side with Blinq, Popl and HiHello, plan by plan, with every price read off their own pages this week. The tables concede where they should: we have no NFC cards, no CRM sync and no paper-card scanner, and HiHello's free plan holds four cards to our two. Read them under Compare.
- New
A Shop on your page, on every plan
Your page can carry a Shop tab now, free on every plan — it used to need Pro. Add what you sell with a price, a picture and a category, and visitors get a tab of their own to browse it. The Buy button goes to your own checkout link, wherever you already take payment, so Linkhiver never handles the money and takes no cut. Five products free, fifty on Pro — which also lets you feature one product on your Links tab and schedule when a product comes and goes.
- New
Email your subscribers — 25 a month, free
Marketing has a new first tab, Subscribers: everyone who signed up through your page, a Send announcement button, and what you have already sent. Every plan can send 25 emails a month; Pro raises that to 2,000. Each message carries an unsubscribe link, replies come straight to you, and the moment your first subscriber joins, the notification takes you to the composer.
- New
A request form that opens WhatsApp
Add a request block to your page: a visitor leaves their name, number and what they need, then taps through to WhatsApp with the message already written. You keep the list either way — including the people who filled the form and never opened the chat, who until now left no trace at all. Free on every plan, and so are the requests themselves; Pro keeps the history past seven days, shows where each one came from, exports it and stores your saved replies.
- New
Invite someone, earn 20% of what they pay
Your new Referrals page carries a link that is yours alone. Anyone who signs up for Linkhiver through it is credited to you, and when they subscribe to Pro you earn 20% of every payment they make — the first one and every renewal, for as long as they stay. Open to every account, free included. Each commission waits 30 days in case of a refund; after that you can request a payout once your balance passes the minimum shown on the page. We arrange the transfer by email and make it by hand, not automatically.
- Improved
Edit your name, bio and photo in the preview
The phone preview beside your dashboard is now where you edit your header. Click your name or your bio and type straight into it — in your own font, colour and size, exactly as visitors will see it — and it saves the moment you click away. Click your photo and the picker opens on the spot. Esc puts back what was there. It works from every page that shows the preview, so fixing a typo no longer means a trip to Design.
- New
Group your links into collections
On your Links page, tap Add collection: give the folder a title, then add a new link straight into it or drag ones you already have. Choose how the group looks — a list of full-width buttons, a two-up grid, a swipeable row, or full-width showcase cards with the title over the picture — and give each link inside its own cover image. Deleting a folder never deletes its links. Free on every plan; a collection counts as one of your links.
- New
See where your short link's clicks came from
Open a short link in the Link Shortener and there is a new Insight tab. Free on every short link: how many clicks it has taken, the last 30 days against the 30 before them, your top traffic source by name — Instagram, WhatsApp, Google or direct — and a chart of the last 30 days. Pro adds the breakdown under it: clicks by source, devices, countries, and where the link ranks among your own short links.
- Improved
Bots no longer count as clicks
A short link is opened by crawlers and link previewers as well as by people, and until now every one of those counted. They do not any more, and we corrected the history too — so some of your links now show a smaller number than they did yesterday. Nothing was lost: those visits were never people, and the figure you see now is the one worth acting on.
- New
Get your page verified
A verified badge can now appear next to your display name. Settings → Profile shows what an account needs — a confirmed email address, 30 days, a complete profile and at least three links — and ticks them off as you go. Meet them all and you can apply; a person reviews every application, and we usually answer within five working days. It is not something you buy: the badge says we checked that the account is who it says it is, and that is the only thing it can mean.
- New
Connect Claude to your page
From Settings → Integrations you can now connect Claude — or any other MCP-compatible client — to your Linkhiver. Once connected it can read your page: your links, your design, your analytics, and your short links, QR codes and business cards. Ask it which link is underperforming and it answers from your own numbers. On Pro it can also make the change for you. It never sees your subscriber list, and you can disconnect it at any time — that takes effect immediately.
- Improved
Your numbers now come with a comparison
Page views, link clicks and click-through on your Analytics page now show how they compare with the period before — on every plan, including free, where that comparison used to be missing. Click-through has moved up into the headline numbers instead of sitting inside a table, the page opens with a sentence about your own visits, and the chart states its total next to the period before it. Each link's Insight tab does the same: the link's name at the top, its all-time views, clicks and click-through in one row, with your page average beside the rate so you can tell a strong link from a quiet one.
- Improved
Every link setting, out in the open
Opening a link, a product or a short link now shows named sections — Destination, Appearance, On your page — instead of one long run of fields, and the settings that used to sit folded behind “Advanced” (show as QR, pin to top, scheduling) are stated in the open where you can see them. Save sits in the editor's header at every screen size, including on a phone, where it takes over from the bar that followed you at the bottom. Cancel is gone: the back arrow already leaves, and you are still asked before losing unsaved changes.
- Improved
Your design changes save on their own
On the Design page, your edits now save automatically as you make them — a “Saved” marker in the header confirms it, and an Undo is on hand the moment a change lands, in case you want it back. Nothing to press, and nothing lost if you move on mid-edit.
- Improved
Editing your page on a phone got easier
When you add or edit a link on your phone, the Save button now stays with you at the bottom of the screen as you scroll — always within thumb’s reach, instead of waiting at the top of a long form.
- New
Open WhatsApp with the message already written
A WhatsApp link on your page can now open the chat with a first message ready — “Hi! I’d like to book an appointment.” Your visitor still presses send. Add it under the WhatsApp link in your Links editor.
- New
Lock any link behind checks you choose
Open a link's Power-ups and turn on Lock: stack up to five checks a visitor must clear — a sensitive-content notice, a minimum age of 16, 18 or 21, a 4-digit code, a password, or subscribing with their email. Visitors clear the steps in a small card right under the link, and with a code, password or subscription the destination stays hidden until they do. A date of birth is checked on the visitor's device and never stored. On every plan.
- Pro
Animate the link that matters most
Give one link a motion preset — Wiggle, Pulse, Bounce or Glow — from its Power-ups, and its button moves on your page to draw the eye. One animated link at a time, so the motion keeps meaning something. Every preset can be tried in the editor for free.
- Improved
Two promises, written down
The pricing page now states both commitments in full. We take 0% of anything you sell through a link on your page — every plan, the free one included; what you pay us is the subscription price or nothing. And the free plan is a plan rather than a trial: no countdown, no card at signup, no expiry on your page, your links or your analytics history. If a free limit ever has to change, it gets announced here rather than found on your own dashboard.
- New
Find what your page can already do
The Links page has a new Discover Linkhiver checklist: nine things your account already includes, ticked off as you do them — a QR code, your analytics, a digital business card, a short link, an email signup block, an AI score for your bio. Nothing on the list costs anything. Alongside it, the dashboard now shows the odd tip drawn from your own page: if you have a WhatsApp link, it offers to turn it into a QR code; once real visitors start arriving, it points you at where they came from.
- Improved
Wallet buttons on your Linkhiver page
Add to Apple Wallet and Save to Google Wallet now sit right under Save contact on your page, not only on your card's own page — so anyone who lands on your profile can put your card in their phone in one tap. It is the card you keep live on your page, so there is nothing new to set up. Included with Pro.
- New
Choose which emails you get
Settings has a new Notifications tab, with a switch for each email Linkhiver sends: your weekly performance summary and product news. Turn either one off, or back on, whenever you like — including the product-news opt-in you may have accepted when your page went live.
- New
Pay for Pro with Pix
In Brazil you can now pay for Linkhiver Pro with Pix — R$ 17 a month or R$ 129 a year, the final amount, with no tax added on top. Pix is the first option at checkout, alongside card, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
- New
Pro switches on when your page earns it
Reach 100 real views, 50 link clicks or your first subscriber on the free plan and Pro turns on for seven days — no card, nothing to set up. Two days before it ends you get your numbers and what switches off. Free never expires.
- Improved
A real number behind the lock
Free accounts now see one figure from their own traffic on the analytics page: how much of the last 30 days' referred visits came from a single platform. The platform's name is included with Pro.
- Pro
Deep dive into any link
Open a link's stats and tap Deep dive: daily views and clicks, click-through by traffic source, devices, countries and where the link ranks among yours. Everyone sees one real insight about the link — the full picture is included with Pro.
- New
Linkhiver for Chrome
A free Chrome extension that saves the page you are on to your Linkhiver in one click — from the toolbar, or from the right-click menu on a page, a link or selected text. It reads nothing else: no host permissions, no page content, no analytics.
- Improved
Affiliate links keep their credit
Outbound links now pass your page along as the referring site, and saving a link no longer follows a shortener's redirects on your behalf — so a click reaches the programme the way it expects. Tracking links you paste are left exactly as you wrote them.
- Improved
Your @handle works in the social fields
Add a social profile with just your handle — no full address needed — in the setup wizard, the link form and the Design page. Rows saved with an address that cannot work are now marked on the card, so a broken one is easy to spot.
- Improved
Bot traffic no longer counts in your stats
Views and clicks from known bots and crawlers are now filtered out of the numbers you see — on profile analytics and short links alike. Some counts may dip a little; what remains is people.
- Pro
Your business card in Apple & Google Wallet
Save your Linkhiver digital business card as a wallet pass — always on your phone, ready at a tap, with the same QR code that opens your card. Included with Pro.
- Improved
A clearer, faster Design editor
The Design page now opens each item in a focused detail view, with smoother animations and better keyboard and screen-reader support throughout.
- Improved
One tidy row for your social icons
On the Links page, your social icons now live in a single row beside the Design button — the same place at every screen size, instead of two copies that disagreed on phones.
- Pro
Short links that know which phone tapped them
A Pro short link can send iPhone visitors to the App Store, Android to Google Play and everyone else to your website — from one link. Expiry dates, automatic UTM tags and password protection arrived alongside it.
- New
A URL shortener, built in
Turn any long link into a short linkhiver.com/s/ link — with its own QR code, per-click tracking and a destination you can change after you have shared it. Ten short links on the free plan, 100 on Pro.
- New
Classic & Featured link layouts
Turn any link into a Featured showcase card with a cover you crop to fit — or keep it a classic button. Your call, per link.
- Improved
Smarter social icons
Paste any profile link and the network is detected automatically.
- New
Five new embed platforms
TikTok, Apple Music, Deezer, Dailymotion and Loom join YouTube, Spotify, SoundCloud and Vimeo — nine platforms that play right on your page, loading only when tapped.
- New
Location links show a live map
Add an address and your page renders the map itself. Directions are one tap away.
- Pro
Cinematic video backgrounds
Seven looping scenes — ink, rain, embers, ocean, bokeh, smoke and clouds — tuned to play smoothly on every phone.
- Pro
Subscriber CSV export & daily digest
Export your subscriber list any time and get a daily email digest of new leads.
- Improved
Bigger buttons, cleaner pickers
Link buttons and icons are larger on public pages, and the image and icon pickers moved out of Advanced into the main flow.
- New
The Pro plan is live
$6/month or $45/year unlocks your own domain, premium design, audience exports and ad pixels — with local pricing at checkout.
