  • The search text must come after the word: google alone does nothing, and the word must be the first thing you type.
  • Home Screen only builds the address. The search engine sees what you search for when the new tab opens, as with any search. Nothing is sent before you press Enter.
  • The text is encoded safely, so c++ & rust and characters such as # and & reach the engine as typed.
  • Opened searches are saved in Recent, so you can repeat them.

The tool is also a widget, Web search: type what to look for and click an engine. The list of engines is built in; custom engines may come later.
