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.
