Why Do I Need a Secondary Search Engine in Arc Search?
What is the need for setting a secondary search engine in Arc Search on my iPhone, you ask?
Let me give you a clear picture of how this works!
It directly creates a Browse for Me page.
The feature always uses the sources that appear in Google search regardless of the default search engine.
I set DuckDuckGo as the default search engine in Arc Search and generated a Browse for Me web page.
Unfortunately, I did not find a way to change this behavior in the app.
The internet tool Company might let us change this with a future update.
