Kagi App ​

You can use Kagi on your phone or tablet with the Kagi App.

Android ​

The Kagi app is currently available for Android. Download it from the Google Play Store. You can watch a setup video here.

  • Add Kagi search widgets to your homescreen for quick access.
  • Use the app directly to search with Kagi on your device.
  • Privacy Pass is supported in the Android app. For setup instructions, see the Getting Started with Privacy Pass page.

Pixel Launcher ​

If you are using the Pixel Launcher, you can replace the default Google Search widget with the Kagi Search widget.

  1. Install the Kagi app.
  2. Long-tap (tap and hold) the search bar on the home screen.
  3. In the pop-up menu, select “Search settings”.
  4. Tap “Search engine”.
  5. Select “Kagi Search”.

Note
To restore the default Google Search widget, follow the same steps and choose “Google” as the search engine.

iPhone ​

An iOS app is not yet available. Once released, it will include support for homescreen widgets and direct search. Updates will be posted here when the app is available.

Custom Use ​

If you want to manually set Kagi as a default search engine, use these settings:

  • Kagi Search URL https://kagi.com/search?q=%s

  • Kagi auto suggestions URL https://kagi.com/api/autosuggest?q=%s

  • Kagi auto suggestions URL (Privacy Pass) https://kagisuggest.com/api/autosuggest?q=%s

  • Reverse image search URL https://kagi.com/reverse/upload.

    • For image search to work, you have to pass the image you are trying to reverse-search in a file POST parameter. For example, in Vivaldi to achieve this you have to set "POST parameters of image search" to file={google:imageThumbnail}
