Does this guarantee a link is safe?+
No tool can guarantee safety. We flag the most common structural indicators of phishing and malware, but a determined attacker can mimic a legitimate site perfectly. Always pair URL checking with up-to-date antivirus and cautious behaviour.
Why does the score drop for HTTP sites?+
HTTP sends data unencrypted, so attackers on the same network can intercept or modify pages. Many legitimate sites still use HTTP, but for anything involving passwords, payment or personal data, HTTP is a serious risk.
What is a homograph attack?+
Attackers register domains that look identical to real ones by using non-Latin letters (Cyrillic а instead of Latin a). Your browser shows them as the same character but sends you to a different server. Punycode domains starting with xn-- are the decoded form of these lookalikes.
Why should I check shortened URLs?+
Shorteners hide the final destination, so a malicious actor can rotate the target after the link is already shared. Always expand or preview shortened links before visiting them.
Do I need to create an account to use Toolzer?+
No. Every utility on Toolzer is free, anonymous, and works in any modern browser without registration. You will never see a paywall or a forced sign-up flow — the goal is to give you the answer on the first screen and let you move on.
Is Toolzer safe to use with sensitive inputs?+
Yes. Whenever the tool can produce an answer entirely in the browser — password generation, JSON formatting, regex testing, hashing, text counting — the data never leaves your device. When a server lookup is unavoidable (DNS, WHOIS, geolocation), the request is proxied through Toolzer's edge so the upstream service never sees your real IP address.
Does Toolzer work on mobile?+
Yes. The interface is fully responsive and works on iOS Safari, Android Chrome, Samsung Internet, and every other up-to-date mobile browser. You can pin the page to your home screen for one-tap access.
Can I link to or bookmark a result?+
Yes. Every Toolzer page has a clean, permanent URL you can bookmark, share, or paste into a ticket. Results are generated client-side on each visit, so the link always shows fresh data instead of a stale screenshot.
