Hi

You can add a custom search engine in desktops; I don’t think you can add one in Android.

Hello!

Actually I was able to add it when it was presearch.org. Due to a switch to mainnet the URL is changed to .com. The old URL no longer works

Hi

I just followed what the_reckoner explained in his original post.

  1. I opened in the URL, presearch.com
  2. I clicked on the 3 vertical dots, opened “Settings”, then “search engines”
  3. You will find presearch.com in either standard tab and private tab, under recent visits.
