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. It also comes with optional AI features, Search Assist and Duck.ai, which are private and never use your data to train AI. 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.
• Chat Privately with AI: Duck.ai lets you have private conversations with 3rd-party AI models, anonymized by us and never used to train AI.
• 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.
• And many more protections not available on most browsers.
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
Fantastic browser
Can’t believe it took me a conversation with Inflection Pi assistant to find this alternative to Google! The recently added Sync feature works flawlessly to pull my browsing history and bookmarks from the Mac version of this browser: SUPER handy! The only thing missing from my point of view is the “reader” mode: once it’s implemented-it’d be the best browser EVER! 😁. Huge thanks to everyone working to keep our lives a bit more private in the digital world! A+++
I like DuckDuck Go
There are a number of features I like about DuckDuckGo Go. Data privacy is important to me and is the main feature. Others I’m not going to mention because it will alert the organizations and businesses to what they are and nec minute they will be using counter measures. All in all an excellent browser.
Direct access to bookmarks
I can directly access my bookmarks with a single press. No annoying sidebar to open and close. I also like the clear user interface, and DDG’s famous privacy protection. My wishlist includes reader view, font size adjustment, and the ability to categorize bookmarks.
The default font size is way too small for my old eyes. That’s why I have to keep going back to the awful Safari.
