Just set it as my default on iOS and searched for osx 10.10 Top part of the screen shows a Wikipedia result and the remainder shows an ad. Switching back to google.

If they can make that mobile UI much better I'll make it my default but I've essentially done a search and saw no results without having to scroll.



I presume you're on iOS8 beta? Presumably when iOS8 goes gold in the fall, the DDG landing page for mobile users will be greatly improved.

This is a great partnership, as both companies, unlike Google, seem to see privacy as a major feature.


I don't see why their mobile page should be different when iOS 8 is reelased. It's the same problem I have with their desktop site actually. The quick answer box at the top of search results that thinks it knows what I want takes up way too much space.


Because a) they want to take the time to do it right and b) the floodgates for new iOS users (the majority non-betas) will open then.

Don't expect a beta experience to be awesome when DDG has months to get it right for the real release date.
