Enable Shortcut Redirection for Search Engines

You can enable shortcut redirection for many popular search engines such as Google and Bing. QueryDial enables shortcut redirection in Google and Bing by default, so you can search with shortcuts directly in Google/Bing’s search bar. You can enable shortcut redirection for other search engines in QueryDial’s in-app settings.

When you set one of the shortcut-enabled search engines as Safari’s default search engine, you can even search with shortcuts in Spotlight because Spotlight’s web search uses Safari’s default search engine to perform searches.

Tap on the Gear icon at the top of QueryDial’s Sidebar (or the Settings Tab when used in split mode) to open Settings. Under the “Shortcut enabled search engines” section, toggle on search engines you wish to use shortcut with.
