At DuckDuckGo, we believe the best way to protect your personal information from hackers, scammers, and privacy-invasive companies is to stop it from being collected at all. Thats why millions of people choose DuckDuckGo over Chrome and other browsers to search and browse online. Our built-in search engine is like Google but never tracks your searches. And our browsing protections, such as ad tracker blocking and cookie blocking, help stop other companies from collecting your data. Oh, and our browser is free — we make money from privacy-respecting search ads, not by exploiting your data. Take back control of your personal information with the browser designed for data protection, not data collection.

I enjoy this app, expect for the fact that I cant seem to be able to open multiple pages at one once. In addition, I cannot simply make a correction in my search bar without having to rewrite the whole thing. Anyone have any advice or suggestions?
Not bad so far

Just discovered this search engine. I love the privacy. Its very fast. You cant zoom in on images. Wish you could also filter out adult content. Lets hope they add those features.
Great alternative

I will not be using Google again. Tired of being tracked and marketed to constantly- this is fast, efficient and a better alternative.
