Zen Browser is great. It’s fast, smooth, and private. But sometimes, those search shortcut icons in the Focus Search Bar can feel unnecessary. If you’d rather have a clean, simple search bar without these icons, you’re in the right place!
Let’s go step by step and remove those icons so you can enjoy a clutter-free experience.
Why Remove Search Shortcut Icons?
- Less Clutter – A cleaner search bar looks better.
- Faster Access – No distractions, just search.
- Personal Preference – Some users just don’t need them.
Whatever your reason, you have the power to remove them. Let’s get started!
Step 1: Open Zen Browser
Of course, the first step is opening Zen Browser on your device. If you’re not using it already, well, now’s your chance to explore it!
Step 2: Go to Settings
Now, look for the settings menu. You can typically find it by tapping the three dots in the top or bottom corner of the browser.
Got it? Great! Now, let’s move on.
Step 3: Find the Search Bar Options
Inside the settings menu, scroll until you see something related to Search or Focus Search Bar. Tap on it.
Step 4: Disable Search Shortcut Icons
Now, you’re in the right place. Look for an option that says something like:
- Show Search Shortcut Icons
- Enable Quick Search Buttons
It might be named slightly differently, depending on your browser version. But once you find it, toggle it off. That’s it!
Step 5: Enjoy a Cleaner Search Bar!
Exit the settings and go back to your browser’s home screen. Your search bar should now be free of shortcuts!
Bonus Tip: Customize Your Search Experience
Since you’re already customizing things, why stop here? There are other ways to make Zen Browser even better:
- Change the Search Engine – Use Google, DuckDuckGo, or any engine you prefer.
- Enable Dark Mode – Give your eyes a break during late-night browsing.
- Disable News Feeds – Keep distractions out of your browsing experience.
Conclusion
Removing search shortcut icons from Zen Browser’s Focus Search Bar is super easy. With just a few taps, you can enjoy a cleaner and distraction-free browsing experience.
Next time you want to customize your browser, don’t hesitate to explore the settings. You might find more features that make browsing even better for you.
