DuckDuckGo, a browser, has announced the beta release of its app for Mac users, with a Windows version on the way. DuckDuckGo for Mac, like its mobile app, is an all-in-one privacy platform for daily browsing.
Using a privacy-protecting app by default not only prevents intrusive spying but also accelerates surfing and removes numerous common irritations, such as cookie consent pop-ups.
DuckDuckGo for Mac provides users with privacy by default. They receive their built-in private search engine, effective tracker blocker, updated cookie pop-up protection on about 50 % of websites, Fire Button (one-click data wiping), email protection, and more with a single install – all for no cost at all.
End-users will benefit from faster surfing by utilizing a computer’s built-in site rendering engine (the same as the one used by Safari) and disabling trackers before they load.
The built-in Smarter Encryption guarantees that end-users visit the encrypted (HTTPS) version of a site more frequently, and its tracker blocking ensures that they are less vulnerable to third-party scripts that may attempt to obtain their data. By default, in-app data such as history, bookmarks, and passwords are only kept locally on end-user devices and are not available to DuckDuckGo.
DuckDuckGo is presently the most installed browsing application on Android in its major markets, and the 2nd most installed browsing application on iOS after the Chrome browser, with over 100 million queries per day last year. This was a 46.4 % year-on-year increase from a daily average of 79 million search inquiries in December 2020. According to its most recent poll, 27 million users in the United States (9%) utilize DuckDuckGo.
