I'm interested in trying this. There are a few things about it that appeal to me more than the other options. Plus, I like the idea of another browser option.

However, I find it weird that in order to get on the waitlist, I have to install the Duck mobile app. That seems like an unnecessary complication. And it also excludes people who don't have an iPhone. (I'm not sure if there's a Duck browser for Android.)

If it somehow incorporates Apple Pay, I will switch. That is the killer feature that keeps me on Safari.

You can also join the waitlist from our Android app. We needed this step to limit people in the beta as we make improvements before general release, and already made an in-app waitlist for our Email Protection and App Tracking Protection betas.

As for Apple Pay, we would love to add Apple Pay to both DuckDuckGo for Mac and iOS, but currently Apple does not expose the APIs to enable us to do so.
