Bill Lyb (ID: 000000725e0d413e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/25/2023 Works beautifully very effective, but qwant needs to address its browser and add qwant lite. Vipravacy is the best extension I've ever enjoyed, I love it in qwant browser & chrome extension I use it in Yandex alpha. Brilliant

Toren (ID: 000000912777191a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/04/2023 Qwant fait super bien le boulot concernant les traqueurs et les résultats de recherches sont bien meilleurs qu'avant et s'améliorent avec le temps. Depuis que je connais Qwant j'ai toujours pensé que c'était un bloqueur de traqueurs qui manquait et l'entreprise semble en plein développement alors je ne peux que recommander.

James Rodgers (ID: 0000006fb75601d1) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/23/2022 It doesn't work, but that is Google's fault. Seems Chrome no longer allows the creation of "Other Search Engines", only site searches. Only items in the "Search Engines" list can be selected as the default, so Qwant can no longer be set as default. This is anti-trust activity by Google. Only allowed to search inside the corporate fact-censorship bubbles.

RelaxDMJ (ID: 0000003ad7feb7da) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/15/2022 Extension simple et efficace: marche très bien jusqu'à présent. En une extension vous avez "ublock Origin" et "I don't care about coockies" réunies!

Gege Baz (ID: 000000a4ed5708d7) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/23/2022 je réside en Espagne et y utilise mon pc- pourquoi les actualités de Qwant sont espagnoles et je dois à chaque fois changer pour les actus françaises !! Alors que la page de présentation est en français !
