  • Hey DDG, I love your app and search engine, however, one BIG feature that's stopping me from making it my default browser is that it doesn't support importing passwords, it's very easy to implement, please add the ability to add CSV files for password import, the. It will be no brainer to make this app as my default browser it is much faster than other privacy alternatives (Brave/Firefox). Also it is easy on CPU & memory.

  • The latest few updates seem to have broken the ability to open websites in an external app, e.g. I don't get a notification to open twitter when opening a twitter link, or any other external app for that matter. I used to use it all the time and it's very annoying now.

  • I've been using DuckDuckGo for years and now with the addition of the Privacy Plus subscription I really love how well it protects my phone and my surfing on the web. It is a very clean interface and allows you to tweak it to your preferences.

  • Been using duckduckgo for a years now and love it. But since they announced the $10 monthly fee option it seems like the browser is really slowed down. I hope they are not crippling it to try to drive users to a $10 monthly subscription. If so, there are other options out there
