No trust. Won't keep a browser that Google has to know everything. This is why I downloaded one. But search bar shows Google is there. I factory reset before cause of no trust. I'll do again if have too. I have asked for help on their helpline. Lied too, manipulated and scammed out of money.i had, passcodes, passwords, and fingerprints set up, and all info of accounts. Still, Google wouldn't give my accounts back that had money in, but would put an old account up. Sick of nosy, un trusted browsers!!

For the last few months Firefox on my android phone has been often (but not always) forcing searches with bing. I have all search options set to Google so this should not be happening and I don't want it. I have no extensions installed at all. I have also turned off studies as I saw reports online that this can sometimes cause the problem I'm having but it makes no difference.

I need a default search string in order to add Firefox as a search option. Directions on the app advise how to add a search option, but a default search string is required and I haven't been able to figure out what use. https://firefox.com/search is the best I can guess. Any help for an old man is appreciated.
