QueryDial 4+

Set up custom shortcut phrases for search engines, so you can search your favorite websites with just a few keys in Safari.

QueryDial is a Safari extension that allows you to search with custom search engine shortcuts.

You can
- Use “yt cats" to search for cute cat videos on YouTube
- Use "w Gravity" to easily find the content you want on Wikipedia
- Use “!x #trending" to view real-time trending topics on X

Getting started is easy:
1. Add your frequently used searchable websites (e.g., YouTube, Quora, Twitter, etc.) to QueryDial's search library.
2. Set up simple and easy-to-remember shortcuts (e.g., shortcut “yt” represents YouTube).
3. Enter your search terms directly in the Safari's search bar* or in the QueryDial toolbar window.
4. Include the shortcut in your search terms (e.g., “!yt funny cats") or as the first word in your search (e.g., “yt funny cats").

It also offers different ways to enter shortcuts:
- !Bang commands: Use commands like “!wiki grey fox” or “grey fox wiki!” to quickly open a search on the specified website. The syntax here is same as the **!Bangs from DuckDuckGo**.
- Keyword shortcuts: Add the shortcut before or after your search terms, separate them with a space, such as “yt cat videos” or “cat videos yt”.

Enhance your “Shortcuts” app:
QueryDial provides a number of useful shortcuts that you can use to customize your own workflows in the “Shortcuts” app. Try build your own workflow using shortcuts!

*To use QueryDial directly in the search bar, you need to enable shortcuts for the browser's default search engine in QueryDial's settings.
QueryDial currently supports using shortcuts in the following search engines: Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yandex, Yahoo, Baidu, Naver, Ecosia, Brave Search, Startpage, Kagi, Qwant, Swisscows
