Update (Aug 20 / 24): fast redirect seems to have been fixed and functioning as intended with:
- iOS 18 DB 6
- (Kagi for Safari 2.2.6)
When using Kagi for Safari with the iOS 18 Beta, searching via the search bar with fast search ON from an existing tab does not trigger a search.
In order to search with fast search turned ON, you have to create a new (empty) tab, and search from there. Interestingly, after creating a new tab and searching, your original search appears in its original tab (see recording below).
Important to note: I am on iOS 18 DB 3, and this behaviour has been present since the 1st developer beta (possibly a change to how Safari now handles search via the search bar).
Screen recording:
Expected to be able to type a search query in the search bar from an existing and have Kagi navigate to the search results.
Did not expect to have to navigate to a new (empty) tab in order to search.
Edit 1: Also important to note:
If I turn off the Kagi for Safari extension and search from an existing tab, search works fine.
Edit 2: turning off "Use fast redirect method. Should work for most users. If you experience issues, uncheck this option." fixed this issue. Edited post to reflect this.
Edit 3: Update- fast redirect seems to have been fixed and functioning as intended with:
- iOS 18 DB 6
- (Kagi for Safari 2.2.6)
