[iOS] Quick-switch search engine shortcuts above keyboard (like Brave)

xx

I would like to request a feature to display a row of alternative search engine icons above the keyboard when typing in the address bar, similar to the implementation in Brave Browser.

While I use Kagi as my default, I occasionally need to cross-reference results on Startpage or other engines. Having one-tap access to search a specific engine on the fly would be much faster than changing global settings or manually typing bangs every time.

Please see the attached screenshots showing Brave's "Quick-Search Engines" implementation for reference.

Admittedly this is only valid for Kagi, but are you aware you can use Bangs to do this? Would others find this feature useful?

RoxyRoxyRoxy Bangs can do that however it's more effort in my opinion as you have to type more, and like you say it's only for Kagi users.

I think both bangs and what I have suggested is useful. I use this feature on Brave fairly often to reduce Kagi's costs for a stupid that doesn't require a lot of detail.
