CustomSearch 2
Custom search for Safari
£1.99
Custom Search for iOS and Mac, native, fast, iCloud Sync with Mac. 33 search engines or bring your own, bang shortcuts, zero tracking.
Custom Search Engine 2.1 has been rebuilt from the ground up with SwiftUI. Faster, cleaner, and now including a full native iOS app for iPhone and iPad that syncs with iCloud.
Take back control of where Safari sends your searches. Choose from 33 built-in engines or add your own. Enable, disable, and switch engines in seconds from the Safari toolbar.
33 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.
- This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- A full Mac app: manage your engines right in the app window, just like on iPhone. Pin favourites to the top, drag to reorder, and hide the ones you never use.
- iCloud sync: your custom engines, pins and hidden list now follow you across Mac, iPhone and iPad.
- More engines, better icons: new built-ins: GitHub, Reddit, Stack Overflow, Google Maps, DuckDuckGo No AI and Marginalia, all with sharp new icons. Your own engines show their website's icon. Services that have shut down were removed.
- Easier to use: a Paste button for search URLs, clearer setup steps with pictures of exactly what to tap in Safari, and a refreshed design for macOS and iOS 26.
