Due to limitations in the Safari browser, Kagi cannot be set as your default search engine. Instead, this extension intercepts your request to your default search engine selected in Safari and redirects to Kagi, creating a seamless search experience. It works in Private Browsing as well. Please note that some requests may still be sent to your default search engine due to this limitation, although the redirect will always be successful. Kagi search is a quick, user-centric, 100% privacy-respecting search engine with results augmented by non-commercial indexes and personalized searches. It has a clean, high-performance user interface with only the most relevant results and no telemetry, no ads and no collection of private information.
Works Perfectly For Me
Perfect ! I set my search engine as DDG and then installed the extension. I then went to DuckDuckGo.com. I then only gave the extension permission to DDG. Boom. Everything works. Works on iPad and Mac OS too. Nice!
Way better than google
Became a paid user a few months ago and finally installed it on my phone
Works great, nice to see progress on app
Onboarding is a little rough, but it’s gotten a lot better. I don’t have any problems with the extension working ever, and getting my spouse signed up was so much better this last time. Thank you for continuing to improve this app!
Works intermittently
On some devices the extension redirects to Kagi some of the time. On some the extension redirects to Kagi even when I don’t want it to. So it’s a mix of unreliable and over aggressive. I can’t work out how to troubleshoot this. I wish they spent less time on weird AI experiments and more time getting the fundamentals right. And I know they have their own competing browser but giving up all the integrations of Safari because they can’t make their extension work right feels exhausting.
Breaks frequently
It seems like every other day I have to reset this extension because it breaks or it updates and it breaks something else. Also, there are two versions of this extension (?) and I had to download a new one which looks exactly the same, so not sure what’s going on there.
Poor
I pay for Kagi and love my search results. When I use Kagi on my laptop, that is. I have followed the directions to enable Kagi as an extension on Safari, but it simply doesn’t work. This is frustrating, since I pay for Kagi and it works well in the web version. Unless Kagi finds a workaround, I’ll probably stop paying for it altogether and just use Safari on my iPhone and laptop.

- [Changed] All Safari searches now default to redirecting to Kagi, regardless of the Safari Search Engine choice. To limit Kagi redirects to a single search engine, you can select one in the extension popup in Safari. If you previously ran the extension version 2.2.2, if you want to have all searches redirect to Kagi, you can select "All Search Engines" in the extension popup in Safari.
