MetaCert Link Verifier Overview
Watch how to check the safety of a link in a text message before opening it. See how to move MetaCert higher in your iPhone’s share menu so it’s quicker to check any link.
This video shows customers where to find the MetaCert Link Checker in the share menu on iPhone and how to move it to the top. When installed, MetaCert is already available in the share options across apps like Safari, Messages, WhatsApp, Instagram, and more, but it usually sits near the bottom of the list.
By moving it higher, checking links becomes faster and easier. Instead of scrolling every time, MetaCert is right where you need it. You can check the safety of links in just two taps without switching apps, copying, or pasting.
MetaCert uses a new kind of protection that doesn’t rely on outdated reputation scores or delayed threat detection. It applies a Zero Trust model to links, treating every link as untrusted until verified. Each shield is a real-time classification based on direct evaluation. This gives you instant, clear signals so you can decide what to trust without guessing. Instead of reacting after a scam or cyberattack, MetaCert gives you the clarity to avoid one.
🟢 Green Shield
Like a green traffic light. The link has been verified as legitimate. It’s not impersonating a trusted brand, person, or organisation. You can proceed with confidence.
⚪️ Grey Shield
Like a flashing amber light. The link hasn’t been verified. That doesn’t mean it’s safe or dangerous. It means pause, double check, and stay alert. This is where MetaCert’s protection works hardest, preventing trust from being triggered too soon.
🔴 Red Shield
Like a red light or roadblock. The link has been confirmed as phishing. MetaCert blocks access to protect you before harm can happen.
Phishing is the impersonation of trusted people or organisations to deceive others into taking harmful actions, such as opening fake websites, entering sensitive information, downloading malware, or sending money. It’s the most common and effective online threat because the messages and websites often look exactly like the real thing. Criminals don’t exploit human vulnerabilities. They exploit the inherent weaknesses of today’s security solutions for phishing.
