Return address? Sender? At least a copy for the archive?
Nope. It’s all inside.
Delivered
The whole report! And not a single server in between.
1The result lives in the address
Press Share in a tool and you get an address like fof.lol/speed/#/r/b…. Everything after #/r/ is your result, packed bit by bit: the numbers, the rating, the graph if there is one. The names of the fields aren’t in there at all, only their values, so even a full phone report takes a hundred-odd characters.
Browsers never send the part after # to the server. The person who opens the link unpacks the result in their own browser and sees it read-only, with the labels in their own language. If they like it, they can save it to their history. Our server takes no part in any of this: there is nothing to store, nothing to expire and nothing to delete.
Everything that comes from a link is checked: only known fields within sensible limits are accepted. A link that got cut off or edited by hand simply doesn’t open, instead of showing you a phone with 9,000% battery health.
2Short enough for any messenger
Our first links packed the result as text and compressed it. A full report ran to 300–900 characters, and some messengers, Viber first of all, simply cut such links in half. Now each value is packed into exactly as many bits as it needs, and a link is about 100–130 characters long, graph included.
Used to be 860 characters. Now 130. Scissors, you’re out of a job.
3Where to send it
Under every result there is a Share panel:
- the phone’s or computer’s own Share menu, where the browser supports it;
- ready buttons for Telegram, WhatsApp, Viber, X and email, with a short text already written;
- Copy link, for everything else;
- on phones, the result as a PNG picture sent as a file, for chats where a picture says more than a link.
Telegram, mail, a carrier pigeon. Pick one.
Tap!
4Keep a copy for yourself
A link is for others. For yourself there is the Save panel; what it offers differs a little from tool to tool, but in the ones with a full report, like SmartBench and SpeedBench, you get:
- history on your device: a saved result opens again at any time, even offline;
- a PNG card 1080 pixels wide, ready for a chat or a social post;
- plain text (.txt) for a forum or a support ticket;
- JSON, which can be imported back later;
- print or PDF in a light, ink-friendly layout, for the buyer of your old phone who likes paper.
5A postcard, not a sealed letter
The honest part: whoever has the link sees everything that’s packed into it. Nothing in it is encrypted for a particular person, and the link itself sits in your chat history like any other message. So the tools only pack what you’d be comfortable showing:
- SpeedBench leaves your IP address and location out of the link;
- PassBench shares only the rating: the level, rounded strength, time to crack and whether it leaked. Never the password, its length or its characters;
- PrivacyBench links never include your IP address, provider or city;
- WhereBench lets you round the coordinates before sharing;
- a RandomBench giveaway link holds the whole list of participants, so that anyone can repeat the draw: use nicknames.
A postcard. Anyone holding it can read it.
…but the password isn’t on it.
In short
The result travels inside the link, the server never sees it, and the link is short enough for any messenger. Send it to whoever needs it, keep a PNG or a PDF for yourself, and remember that a link is a postcard. The pea will take care of the rest.
