  • Google's URL shortening service goo.gl links will stop working on August 25th, 2025, resulting in 404 errors.
  • Starting August 23rd, 2024, goo.gl links will show an interstitial page warning users of the upcoming shutdown.
  • Google initially suggested migrating to Firebase Dynamic Links (FDL), which has also since been deprecated.
