  3. Click the “Shorten” button.

  4. AutoRaptor will generate a shorter link you can insert directly into your message.

  5. Send your message as usual — the short link will work just like the original.

Tips for Best Results

  • Always test the link before sending to make sure it works.

  • Keep your message concise along with the short link.
