Description

Web searches become part of the GNOME Shell workflow. The extension gives a quick search dialog from the desktop, reducing the need to open a browser first when you already know what you want to search.

It is useful for frequent web lookups, but search terms are sent to the configured online search provider. Avoid entering private data, credentials, or sensitive internal information into public search engines.
