Description

Lucky is a Safari extension that makes Google search simple and private. It removes clutter from the search results page, giving you a clean and easy-to-read interface. Lucky also removes tracking by recreating the search results page from scratch.

You can block spammy sites with a block list that syncs across all your devices via iCloud. Lucky fetches Google’s results and shows them on *Yahoo*, so you can fall back to Google if needed. It also offers a non-buggy dark mode.

If you are unhappy with Google and still want an air-gapped way to use it, give Lucky a try. I hope you find it useful.

Surprisingly effective.

I don’t normally review apps but this one is very very effective. Google was becoming almost unusable with adverts and tracking taking over basic usability. This app is simple to set up and gets back to very useful basics of actual relevant sites that you actually want to look at and you don’t get swamped with adds for days after you search for something. Very strongly recommend for as long as Google don’t work out a way to stop it working. Thanks.

Fantastic search enhancement

A cleverly implemented extension that returns web search to its glory days – a simple, clear, and ad-free experience. The combination of Google results with DuckDuckGo !bangs is the ideal search experience. I use and appreciate it every day.
