The announcement says that the most popular browser extensions are ad-blockers and password managers, and the company says that the app's baked-in features will cater to these requirements. DuckDuckGo claims that its browser, which it built from scratch using just the WKWebView API, is faster than Chrome in some graphics performance, and that it uses 60% less data blocking trackers before they load.ĭuckDuckGo for Mac does not support extensions yet. The engine under the hood uses Apple Safari's Webkit renderer. DuckDuckGo says it is working on including password management in its mobile apps, and will offer private synchronization of passwords and bookmarks across devices. Users can bring their bookmarks from other browsers, and likewise import passwords from Safari, Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and services like 1Password and LastPass. Similarly, it offers Email protection, an email alias service that hides your real email address, and forwards mail to your regular inbox without trackers. All you have to do is type cheatsheet next to a query for an app, language, or service, and DuckDuckGo will list common shortcuts or the basics of your search term.The desktop program retains the Fire button from the mobile app, that deletes all your browsing data with a single-click.
It can help you find keyboard shortcuts for your favorite app and learn the basics of popular programming languages. CheatsheetsĬheatsheets are a somewhat lesser-known feature of DuckDuckGo, but it can be quite helpful in enhancing your productivity. Note: As of this writing in December 2022, app tracking protection is still in beta but available to all Android users. Once the feature is active, you’ll be able to see how many trackers were blocked, including from which companies and in which apps. The feature will ask you to set up a VPN connection to monitor data traffic from your apps (none of this data is sent to DuckDuckGo servers, though). You’ll find it in the “More from DuckDuckGo” section.
And then, go to Settings in the app and enable the feature. To use app tracking protection, install DuckDuckGo for Android on your phone if you don’t already have it.
