[FEATURE REQUEST] Search function directly into the URL bar

Hi @skyjake can you implement that when you type anything without a known web suffix e.g.:. .com, .net, etc. and basically anything without a dot, Langrange searches on the default search engine you select instead of looking for an inexistent gemini page?

I personally believe this will make the gemini experience more interactive, thanks! 🙏

@clseibold perhaps I've never setup this feature properly and it has never worked out... 🤔

You could always put quotes around queries that look like URLs...

I believe that today has been a crazy day for me and I haven't realized this future have been always there...

@freezr Searches via the URL field have indeed been there for a very long time. 🙂

In v1.17, you'll also get additional search shortcuts so you don't have to rely on a single search engine.

Also, for feature requests I recommend visiting
