Snaps ​

Snaps allows you to easily limit search results to a specific website by using the @ symbol followed by a short code for the site and then your search query.

Example ​

Typing @r headphones will search for "headphones" but limit the results to reddit.com (r is the short code for Reddit). This allows you to quickly find relevant content on a specific site using Kagi's powerful index. It is effectively the same as doing headphones site:old.reddit.com.

Its relative, Bangs feature, invoked by using "!r headphones", would redirect the user to reddit's internal search.

How to Use Snaps ​

1. Type the @ symbol in the search bar.
2. Enter the short code for the site you want to search.
   • If you don’t know the short code, type a few letters of the site’s name and autosuggest options will appear.
   • Navigate these options using your arrow keys or mouse.
3. Enter your search query.
4. Press enter or click the search button.

Contributing to Snaps ​

The short codes used in Snaps are the same as those used in our Bangs feature. The list of bangs is open source, so anyone can contribute to it. If you don't see a short code for a site you want to search, feel free to submit a pull request to add it to the list.
