CustomSearch 2

Version 2 is here! Completely revamped with a brand-new native iOS app. 29 search engines, bang shortcuts, zero tracking.

Version 2! Completely Revamped

Custom Search Engine 2 has been rebuilt from the ground up with SwiftUI. Faster, cleaner, and now including a full native iOS app for iPhone and iPad.

Take back control of where Safari sends your searches. Choose from 29 built-in engines or add your own. Enable, disable, and switch engines in seconds from the Safari toolbar.

29 Built-in Search Engines Brave Search, Kagi, DuckDuckGo, Startpage, SearXNG, Perplexity, Google, Bing, and 21 more, all pre-configured and ready to use. No setup needed.

Bang Shortcuts Override your default engine for any single query. Type k! for Kagi, d! for DuckDuckGo, pp! for Perplexity, y! for YouTube... no settings change required. Works at the start or end of any search.

Add Your Own Engines Any search engine works. Enter a URL with %s as the query placeholder, assign a bang shortcut, and go.

Your Privacy, Protected The extension operates at the URL level only. It never reads page content, never stores your queries, and never makes network requests. What you search is yours alone.

How It Works

1. Enable the extension in Safari Settings → Extensions
2. Tap the toolbar icon to pick your default engine
3. Search as you always do, Safari redirects automatically

Available for Mac (Safari App Extension) and iPhone & iPad (Safari Web Extension). Free, no account, no subscription, no ads, no tracking.
