Setting Kagi as Default on Chromium-based Browsers (Mobile) does not work

lrklrk

Hi!

When trying to follow the steps at https://help.kagi.com/kagi/getting-started/setting-default/chromium-mobile.html - it appears that when using Chrome on both Android and iOS, there is no "Recently Visited" section, and in general no way to make Kagi your default search engine here.

Not a 'bug' in the traditional sense, but broadly speaking I'm not sure if there are other instructions that do work, or if this entire section of the documentation should be re-worked to provide other suggestions (e.g. "have you tried using the Kagi app instead", so leaving this here for someone knowledgeable to fix.

Thank you!

Hello! Could you try searching using Kagi a few times in Chrome? The "Recently Visited" section should appear after that in the "Search engine" tab (you may also need to completely close and reopen the app)

Wow -- I swear I already tried that and it didn't show up. But... now it shows up!

Maybe my threshold for "a few times" was too low -- I had used it _3x, but it looks like I needed closer to _10x. I also hadn't rebooted the app originally, but it might have naturally restarted since then.

Might be worth adding the reboot advice to the app.

Thanks so much!

No problem, glad to hear it's working now. I'll add opening and reopening the browser to the instructions as well.
