IOS 18 Beta Sarai Extension Doesn't Immediately Execute on Re-used Tabs/Windows

Have not noticed since I’ve turned it off so seems to definitely be that setting.

Can also confirm this on the 18 beta. Turning off "Use fast redirect method" resolves the issue as expected but is not ideal as it makes searches feel quite slow and clunky.

I've already submitted feedback to Apple (recent similar report seems to be more than 10), and I haven't noticed anything related to DNR in Safari's release notes.

I suspect that this is a Safari bug introduced in iOS 18.

Looks like an update was released on TF today.
It works fine on my end (for now), feels snappy enough.

sefidel I also installed the extension from TF and so far on my 18.0 beta it's working exactly as expected.

After upgrading to iOS 18 and 18.1 beta, searching from the address bar no longer works. It hangs and doesn't go to Kagi and also doesn't change web pages.

Expected to go to Kagi search.

I installed the iOS 18 RC last week and noticed this issue as well. When entering a search query in Safari’s address bar, it takes a long time before I get redirected to Kagi.

iOS 18 will be released tomorrow — will this issue be fixed by an update if the Kagi extension soon?

I’m using iOS 18 and Kagi extension 2.2.6 and searching from the address bar only works intermittently. Sometimes the search term appears in my search history but doesn’t actually navigate me anywhere (not even the default search engine).

I’m using Kagi safari extension 2.2.6 on a new iOS 18 phone and have the same problem described in this post. Any update on a fix? I don’t see the DNR setting mentioned further above.

Dustin

kevincrane You should probably try the 2.2.7 build on TestFlight. I'm not sure why the App Store version has yet to update but I'm still on the TF which works ok
