| In addition to what magicalist said, here is some more information: The Firefox Search widget is indeed installed by default but not activated by default. You can use it either by adding it to the home screen or via the “swipeup” gesture. A problem is that it seems to have its own “Clear search history” and does not obey the one from the Firefox privacy settings. Another problem is that you may activate it and set it as permanent default for the “swipeup” gesture by accident, and then there seems to be no way to change it to something else unless you install some other application that provides a “swipeup” action, in which case you are presented again with the interface to choose your default swipeup action. This is a general problem in Android. An app that can help you change easily the default swipeup action is the Swipeup Utility: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AdrianCamp... You can use Swipeup Utility to set the default swipeup action to Nothing, or you can use it to clear the default of the swipeup gesture, so that you are a presented with the interface to chose a default again. Last, the Firefox Search widget does not allow only Google Search. It is set to whatever your default search provider is in Firefox. |
