A browser start page
Open a new tab.
Actually enjoy it.
Search, your own shortcuts, and a background you chose, every time you open a tab. No account. Nothing to install. It's just a page.
Free. No sign-in. Stays on your device.
Stay curious.
Everything a new tab should have
nothing it shouldn't
i.
One box. Search, or just go.
Type a question and it searches. Type a URL and it just goes there. The icon tells you which, before you hit enter.
ii.
Your shortcuts, your order
Add any site, drag to reorder, group into folders, the way an iPhone home screen already works.
iii.
A background that's actually yours
Default, Bing's photo of the day, a solid gradient, or your own upload. Resized in your browser, it never leaves your device.
iv.
Nothing leaves your device by default
Shortcuts and settings live in local storage only. Never on a server, never synced, never visible to anyone else.

Questions
Do I need to sign in?
No. Nothing to sign up for or log into.
Will my shortcuts sync across my other devices?
Not yet. They're saved in this browser's local storage only, so a different browser or device starts fresh.
Is anything sent anywhere?
Search queries go to DuckDuckGo, and the Bing-photo background is fetched through this site so Bing never sees your IP directly. Nothing else leaves your device.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Open it in your phone's browser the same way.
Also on this site
the start page is one part of it
