Description
DuckDuckGo for Mac is a free browser that provides the most comprehensive online privacy protection in one app. Unlike most popular browsers, it has powerful privacy protections by default, including our search engine that doesn’t track your history and over a dozen other built-in protections. Millions of people use DuckDuckGo as their go-to browser to protect their everyday online activities, from searching to browsing, emailing, and more.
FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS
• Search Privately by Default: DuckDuckGo Private Search comes built-in, so you can easily search online without being tracked.
• Block Most Trackers Before They Load: Our 3rd-Party Tracker Loading Protection exceeds what most popular browsers offer by default, stopping most hidden tracking scripts from loading and collecting your personal data.
• Enable Built-in Email Protection: Block most email trackers and hide your existing email address with @duck.com addresses.
• Watch YouTube videos more privately: Duck Player protects you from targeted ads and cookies with a distraction-free interface that incorporates YouTube’s strictest privacy settings for embedded video.
• Automatically Enforce Encryption: Shield your data from network and Wi-Fi snoopers by forcing many sites to use an HTTPS connection.
• Escape Fingerprinting: Make it harder for companies to create a unique identifier for you by blocking attempts to combine info about your browser and device.
• Import Bookmarks and Passwords: Easily bring your bookmarks and login info from another browser to DuckDuckGo. Plus, Sync bookmarks and passwords across your devices.
• We feature many protections not available on most browsers, even in private browsing mode, including protection from link tracking, AMP tracking, and more.
EVERYDAY PRIVACY CONTROLS
• Clear your tabs and browsing data in a flash with the Fire Button.
• Banish cookie pop-ups and automatically set your preferences to minimize cookies and maximize privacy.
• Signal your privacy preference with Global Privacy Control (GPC) built into our app. GPC intends to help you express your opt-out rights automatically by telling websites not to sell or share your personal info. Whether it can be used to enforce your legal rights depends on the laws in your jurisdiction.

Ratings and Reviews
Font colour width weight
It’s a amazing experience using a duck duck go but I think there is some adjustment can be made like when when we searched something the information which gets displayed there font isn’t so attractive it’s a little bit small in size and transparent .
I love the history clean up button which is shape of fire and animation which get displayed during it , I simply love it’s simple design everything is compact .
It will be amazing if duck duck go can warn us if site is not secure like small pop up or searched box colours get changed to some other colour .In fact you can changed the search box colour as per there category of privacy .
Recommend for iPad users
The browser I wanted, but I tried many of them, and all of them have some problems. The most popular browser, Chrome, also lacks some features and crashes while using websites in desktop view. Additionally, the built-in browser Safari stores a lot of junk data that we can't erase to free up device space. DuckDuckGo has a button to press to forget about history and junk data, which is really awesome. I haven't faced any kind of issue with this browser till now
I need option to change default browser
All over this browser isn't bad. Tbh it is better than safari and Firefox in terms of UX. i prefer google over duckduckgo because googles recommends or indexes better sites than duckduckgo in india and gives all over bettee search results thats why i prefer google. I even started using duckduckgo browser as my default but had to change back as I couldn’t change the default browser. So my msg to developers is either provide better results in your search engine or give me the option to change my default browser in app and if the option is available kindly make it easier to find
Peace ✌🏼
