Description
This is a very basic app. Designed for people who wants to use a search widget with their preferred search engine.
This app contains a search bar to type in a search query, which will be opened in the Internet browser. A widget for the home screen will simply start the app.
You can change the search engine in the settings (Default is DuckDuckGo) or type in a custom search string. The app also saves the search queries as a history.
Recent changes: * Fix export file format: Use fixed names independent from app version, previous exports are sadly incompatible now * Support receiving shared texts from other apps * Reworked the "Manage search engine" dialog

Does exactly what it says. This is a really good option if you want to have a widget for a non-google search engine on your home screen. It is also open-source, which is a huge plus.

Good... two things needed: voice search (non-google) and transparent widget.

★★★★★Ryan Burke· Jul 5, 2019
Exactly what I was looking for. A simple, no BS search bar widget that uses the engine I want and shows the results in my default browser of choice. A+
★☆☆☆☆Alma Express· Jun 20, 2019
It does not have any settings for what browser to open search results with but open default one without asking.
★☆☆☆☆Pete Betz· Mar 13, 2018
It doesn't work. Just opens a bunch of browser windows to Google or whatever, where you have to type in the search terms again.

This app uses Yandex, a Russian search engine. Why would you want to use a Russian search engine?!?
