How I Accidentally Made My Link Shortener into a Malware Honeypot
A couple years ago a client asked me for their own URL shortener service. I found YOURLS (https://github.com/YOURLS/YOURLS) and reluctantly installed it on a cheap, shared, hosting account.
Thankfully after a couple years, I convinced them (it took several tries) to use a 3rd party hosted provider.
Bullet dodged.

YOURLS has a "detect-mobile-device" plugin. Is that what you were looking for?

Tool/solution to "masquerade" or encode/decode part of the url to avoid showing subpaths details (f.e: myDomain.tld/myFolder/MyFile should became myDomain.tld/casualStringGeneratedAndMappedByTheTool) ?
You will need to implement the YOURLS URL Shortener (https://yourls.org) and then implement the following YOURLS Plug-in - https://github.com/peterberbec/yourls-keyword_charset_length (Keywords, Charset & Length).
