Comments on Pixel Search: Universal Search for Android

★★★★☆ Arshia Afzali · Jul 12, 2026

Update: Thank you for adding shortcut search. But one problem still... App now supports searching through shortcuts, but I think it only searches through default app shortcuts shown when holding on app icon and not other ones that could be made with the app. For example, I am using 1 dm download manager. It lets you add its browser to home screen as a shortcut. But pixel launcher doesn’t show that in search results whilr samsung finder does. I hope you add this useful function too. Thank you

★★★★★ Michael C · Apr 24, 2026

Edit: this is great, but I do have one piece of advice. I think it's kind of redundant prioritize One icon for song search and then another icon just for regular search. Because when you click on the regular search feature something pops up that says search song. So it only saves you one click, but it occupies a huge chunk of the widget, and it makes it harder to reach The part for text search. So I use older version. Increasing customizations or maybe prioritizing a different shortcut there?

★★★★☆ Raman Singh · Mar 12, 2026

Hi dev, I really like your app and since google killed the M3E style pixel search bar on Android 16, I've been using this app as the default search provider on pixel launcher. However, I noticed that the app uses PNG for widget icons instead of XML drawables. I hope you can switch the icons to vectors, so they look less pixelated. Great app btw ❤️

★★☆☆☆ Daniel · Sep 2, 2026

App has improved since last year, but still several issues: 1. Very glitchy animations & slow performance 2. First tap is often delayed to launch with slow animation. 3. The suggested apps' algorithm should use the Usage Access API to suggest more relevant apps. 4. When typing a query, the Google search suggestions have a big delay in reflecting what's being typed. 5. If you add a space after an app name, the app disappears from the results Sesame Search still outperforms it, despite its age.

★☆☆☆☆ Ernesto · Aug 1, 2026

It is a useful app. However, it has a serious security vulnerability as of the latest version. If you enable the Google search suggestions setting, If you inspect the network logs, the requests are made via port 80 which is insecure HTTP traffic. The app is essentially sending your search queries over unencrypted clear text HTTP instead of HTTPS, which opens the door to several kinds of attack vectors. If the developer responds and addresses this issue, I will update my review.
