[Feature Request] Please add an option to disable omnibar online search suggestions #678

Closed davehawkkun closed 1 week ago

davehawkkun commented 1 week ago

Most other web browsers I've used got an option to stop the browser from showing online search suggesions when typing in omnibar or search bar, but I couldn't find such option in current version of Supermium (122.0.6261.152). Sometimes there would be some bad, cringe inducing keywords appearing in those suggestions, so it would make browsing much more pleasant to me if there's an option to disable it.

I will be appreciated if this feature could be implemented.

UPDATE: I found the option I want under "You and Google" in settings, it's "Improve search suggestions". Still, thanks to everybody who provided hints. Sorry for wasting public resources, and may the world get better.

This is not what I want... I only want results from "bookmarks and internal chrome pages", but this flag doesn't provide such option. When I set this flag to "search suggestions only", it still shows online suggestions.

you are correct, "bookmarks and internal chrome pages" is not a flag option. set the flag from default to "search suggestions, bookmarks and internal chrome pages". next, set "Search customization is off" in the google site search settings. that should provide you with what you want for the omnibox and the search bar.

Did you try to remove online suggestions URL from search engine settings?

They can also be disabled by setting SearchSuggestEnabled policy to "disabled". image
