But doesn't Siri use Bing? So this is only for Safari? Isn't it a weird experience if one app uses Google for search and another uses Bing?

- ocdtrekkie 9y agoNot really, results are results. And they're usually pretty similar anyways. Also, consider that when searching with Siri, Apple is controlling the formatting of those results as well, so they will fit Apple's style, not Bing's.
- teej 9y agoWhen Siri decides your request needs web search results, it uses Bing by default. You can override this by asking Siri to "google search" for your term. The behavior is different in that it will open your default browser to a Google search results page.
- redial 9y agoIt is, but is also a sign that Apple wants to commoditize search on the iPhone, weakening Google's position. All without stop receiving Google's billions of course.
