Find anything on your phone easily with Pixel Search - the all-in-one search app

Features & Capabilities

Pixel Search: Universal Search is the ultimate on-device search app that lets you quickly locate apps, contacts, files, shortcuts, and web suggestions from a single clean interface. It supports icon pack theming, custom app shortcuts via Shortcut Maker, and custom search engines, plus a Material You widget and light/dark themes.

Privacy-focused permissions: all permissions are used only for searching; no data is shared, everything stays on the device, and data is deleted when the app is uninstalled. Optional access (contacts, calls) is only used if you enable those features.

User Reviews

User reviews praise Pixel Search for fast, comprehensive app search and a premium UI, often noting it as a strong replacement for stock/Google widgets. They appreciate customization and theming, but repeatedly request more control (icon sizing/placement, hiding logos, old widget design). Recurrent concerns include duplicates/stale results in search and occasional feature limitations tied to device/version constraints.

Pros

Fast and comprehensive universal search with quick app launching.
A modern, premium UI that outpaces stock and Google widgets.
Highly customizable widget and theming options that fit various setups.
Active development with frequent updates from a dedicated team.
Strong integration as a replacement for the stock/Google search widget.

Cons

Requests for more customization options (icon sizes/placements, hiding the left logo, and an option to revert to the old widget design).
Duplicates and stale results in the app list/search, including uninstalled apps appearing.
Limited live wallpaper compatibility with the widget background.
Some features appear to be version-specific or constrained by Android version (e.g., blur effect limited to Android 16).

Recent reviews

Insanely useful. The successor in spirit to Sesame Search! It's fast, functional and works great for searching apps, contacts, files, locations, even YouTube Music tracks. I have mapped it to the extra useless AI button on my phone!

terrible. you forced the widget into three blocks just to add that stupid music search button (non-removabe!!), which, by the way, isn't available yet. biggest unforced error I've ever seen, and I'm a Jets fan
