Share

Are you one of the few people who prefer to use search engines other than Google on your iPhone? There’s a quick way to ditch Google in place of other available search engines on your iPhones.

Recently, there has been a lot of buzz about Apple building its search engine, and Microsoft’s 2020 pitch to Apple to incorporate Bing search into its smartphones. However, we all know that Google already pays billions of dollars to Apple to remain the default search engine on all iOS devices.

As per the reports, Apple’s alleged search engine is called Pegasus and the technology behind it is already used within iPhones to search for things. If you actually want to switch from Google to other search engines on your iPhone, here is how you can do it.
