Is there any way to reach S Finder in an easier way than having to go to the notification panel? It's really annoying as I want to be able to search my phone quickly, and not by having to drag down the notification slider in order to open the search function. Or do you guys have any other recommendation for a file/contact/app finder or search app (other than Google, since it's generally sluggy for searching internally)?

of course there is mate,
1. Install nova launcher (there are other ways, but that is how I did it)
2. go to widgets and click 'Activities'
3. Select 'S Finder' from the list
You can also check out Conjure which is a similar app that works well and has a widget. But like Mitko76 said installing Nova and using the activities shortcut gives you a lot of options!
Hey Community, hope this will be a beautiful day for us.
My question is, is it possible to move the URL Bar to the bottom of the browser like it can be done with chrome?
Or is there any hidden feature menu as it is in e.g. Firefox with about:config?
Thanks for any suggestions
Nope.
And now ?
They should add this it would be great addition.

just tell this as feedback in the playstore and in the samsung app store. You can also tell them your feedback in any samsung app over "contact us"
I don't understand why nobody likes the adressbar at the bottom. For me it's just innovative and ergonomic.. Hope they will change this

If you want to access the menus for devs similar to those in Chrome Browser. (chrome://urls/) You can type "internet://urls/" (without quotations!!!). There aren't a lot of Flags in the ,internet://flags/, webpage. To use debug settings. Similar to Chrome Browser, type "internet://debug/", you'll get a crash page then just tap the overflow menu (top-right) >Debug settings.
Ignore this comment
why is it there? how to get rid of it?
Don't think you can disable them.
Those are recommendations on what to search. They keep changing each few seconds for me. I don't find any inconvenience as if you type anything in the search bar the recommendation is replaced with what you type.
I've disbaled google and the search function does nothing, how can I change this so my browser is used?
Similarly, opening youtube links isn’t working for newpipe.

you need to use the widget from the browser. if it doesnt have a widget, then you are out of luck. the default search box is from google app.

Thanks for the reply, is there a way to configure the search function when selecting text in a document or something or is that app dependant?

that functionality depends on each browser
for an alternative, you could install a third party launcher (e.g Nova Launcher). there you can customize the provided search bar functionality.
I find this so annoying. And it just started about a week ago on all my Android devices after updating Chrome.
I want to stop Recent Searches (those little magnifying glasses) from appearing under the search bar in Chrome. Or turn off search history altogether. Turning off web activity doesn't work with Chrome. I can't find anything to stop this.
Thanks in advance
To stop Recent Searches from appearing under the search bar in Google Chrome, you can follow these steps:
Open Google Chrome and click on the three dots in the top-right corner of the browser window to open the menu.
In the menu, click on "Settings" to open the Settings page.
In the Settings page, click on the "Search engine" section on the left side of the page.
In the "Search engine" section, you will see an option called "Manage search engines." Click on this option to open a list of all the search engines that you have added to Chrome.
In the list of search engines, find the one that you use as your default search engine, and click on the three dots next to it to open the context menu.
In the context menu, click on "Edit" to open the edit window for that search engine.
In the edit window, you will see a checkbox next to the option called "Show search suggestions as you type." Uncheck this box to disable the Recent Searches feature.
Click on "Save" to save your changes and close the edit window.
After following these steps, Recent Searches should no longer appear under the search bar in Google Chrome. If you want to enable the feature again in the future, you can follow the same steps and check the "Show search suggestions as you type" box again.

Just realized I didn't specify Android. Going to edit my post but thank you. Unfortunately this doesn't work in Chrome for Android. No option to manage search engines
This is driving me nuts, too. There's gotta be a flag.
I just uninstalled latest update and this problem solved.
Has anyone found a flag in Chrome to address this?
same here, it's quite annoying
That's the flag you need to disable guys

Hey guys,
I hope you can help me with this additional query/issue:
I using Chrome on Android. Under the search bar are always some icons of recently visited websites/searches which are changing every day. I really don't need this icons and found this annoying like the other issue you reported above.
Is there any possibility to disable this icons in Chrome on Android as well? To disable the mentioned flag doesn't help with this issue, the icons with recent searches still exist.
Thanks in advance.

I'd actually dumped chrome because of this annoyance, so I'm glad to see this fix.
#internetsuperhero award for you.
Unfortunately it doesn't help me to disable this flag. I see still in Chrome the recent searches very often and also the above mentioned icons/shortcuts...
I registered here just to share that this has got to be the most idiotic feature ever. Who th would want search result queries on their home screen. Enabling this by default and not making it accessible through settings was just a terrible idea altogether

Thank you, good sir! It helped.
This was so annoying seeing search queries on my homepage. Who needs to query the same thing more than once anyway?
