# Why choose Galactic?

Galactic offers a browsing experience unmatched on Apple Watch, with headlining features including:

+ An unrivalled design made for Apple Watch. 
With most competitors, you're sent to a search engine's website as soon as you make a search, forcing you to squint at text that isn't suited for such a small screen. When you make a search on Galactic, however, it gets results directly from your selected search engine and presents them in an interface that feels at home on your wrist, without unnecessary clutter.

+ Faster performance.
Because Galactic doesn't force your watch to load an entire webpage for every search query, you can expect to get the results you're looking for much faster than on most competitors.

+ High-quality results.
Galactic partners directly with search engines that are used by millions of people each day for their detailed and accurate results.

+ The best web compatibility on the market.
Galactic ships with three ways to launch your favourite sites, as opposed to just one seen elsewhere, offering enhanced compatibility with the web for the rare situation where one web renderer is unable to load your content.

+ Seamless integration with your iPhone. 
Receive a notification on your phone when you send a result to it, and jump right in with a single tap.

+ Comes with Galactic for Apple TV.
Your purchase of Galactic for Apple Watch also comes with Galactic for Apple TV – the best way to search the web on the big screen.

+ Frequent updates.
Galactic receives constant service and feature updates based on community feedback.

# More Information:

Galactic is privacy conscious. I, the developer, do not collect or otherwise access your data, including your search history. However, by using the third-party search engines it ships with, you are subject to their privacy policies: hence for honesty and clarity, the app's privacy label reflects these engines. You can opt out of this by bookmarking a search engine of your choice.

Due to the limitations of its hardware, certain websites may not behave correctly on such a small device – though this is a rare occurrence, and could be remedied by switching to another website renderer. Additionally, Galactic cannot store cookies for your browsing sessions.
