Simple Search

About this app

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.

Ratings and reviews

App works perfect, does exactly what i need, zero problems or complaints. At no point does the app itself connect to the internet. Almost downloaded the fdroid version but saw the low reviews here so i got the gplay one to leave the good review the dev deserves!

I loved this simple search app to get me to DuckDuckGo quickly with no permissions needed. I would have rated it five stars except for the new internet access permission required. I wish they had another version with no permissions again.

5 stars for open source. but it will re-search and show results for previous search, not current search
