I know we’re really getting into the weeds here, but I’m curious what issues you’re having with iOS Safari and Kagi. I’m using it with both normal and private tabs and it’s working great. There were a series of fixes in the past month to the Kagi app (necessary for Safari integration) that specifically addressed issues with private browsing. Might want to try it again. Good luck!

I just dislike the idea of installing an app or extension just to change the default search engine. Not Kagi's fault, entirely Apple's.

Definitely agree. Ideally you’d be able to extend the search engine list in Safari’s settings but alas.
