Vlad So you would rather have find on page then your bookmarks or history? It sounds unusual as this feature is very rarely used (IMO)?

      I understand it's not self-explanatory for everyone but if you want to find something quickly and efficiently it's easy if
      you can just click on the search bar (not the favicon) and then search for the specific word through this bar. Just by one click. Or maybe the top bar can be customizable so that you can add icons from the favicon menu right or left from the search balk. Or just by right-clicking from the search bar that they find on the page will be getting active to avoid too many icons on the screen.

        wesvr What you are suggesting are also two taps - one on address bar and one on find on page. Orion requires exactly two taps too?

          Brief Summary
          Allowing a user to search in a site just like how they would in Safari.

          Details:
          A user would enter the search bar, enter the term they are looking for on the site and then they would scroll down in the search list to look in the site to find for example, a page from an large index

            The search on the page should be accessible more quickly, for example via the search bar as integrated in Safari

            With fewer clicks, the search is accessible

              Sometimes by the time I locate the “find on page” button (I often mistakenly click the general-purpose overflow menu) I forget what I was searching for. It’s just for a second — no big deal — but this never happens when using the URL bar shortcut, which lets me “get the search out of my system” as soon as possible.

                Why not both? I had no idea you could search from the URL bar in Safari, after 10 years of use. So discoverability is better in the current Orion implementation

                  carl Agree re:both. Not sure I get the discoverability comparison. Safari’s “find on page” is an option in the share sheet, easily discoverable.

                      Just like safari I’d like searching in the address bar to show results on the webpage

                      Just type search term in address bar and show “results on this page” at the bottom

                              This only works on mobile safari. That said, it would be nice to have.

                                Make it possible to search the text contents of a webpage on mobile Orion. Safari uses the address bar and offers “On Page” as an option.

                                I see them using it to quickly find or re-find a particular word, to aid on-page navigation.

                                  it's in a different location than in safari, under the website favicon.

                                      Thanks all. I had no idea the favicon was a menu! I'm sure I can get used to this. I never really liked Safari's implementation - after entering your search term in the URL bar you have to scroll down past a bunch of stuff which is very easy to accidentally tap as you're scrolling.
