The safari menu bar is at the very top of your screen, up by the apple logo.

Safari>Preferences>General.

The home page preferences are midway down and you can manually enter the address you prefer, or if you are actively viewing the page you can click the "Set to current page" button.

You don't get a menu bar as such, just :

• back and forward arrows
• an icon indicating how many pages/tabs you have open
• bookmarks icon
• an icon that allows you to add bookmark, add to homescreen, mail link, print

Apr 26, 2011 10:19 AM in response to Dadralph

At the top is the search box and url box, but no menu bar exists.

There are a few buttons for specific functions.

What are you trying to do?

Apr 26, 2011 11:31 AM in response to red555

Hi Red, Comcast is my regular home page. They have instruction by going to Safari menu bar to make Comcast my home page. Maybe there is another way. Ralph

Apr 26, 2011 11:36 AM in response to Dadralph

You can not set a homepage with the Safari browser. You can download other browsers that let you set a homepage such as the Mercury browser. Look in the app store for alternative browsers that fit your needs.

Apr 26, 2011 11:40 AM in response to Dadralph

In order to achieve something close to what you want to do with Safari, go to the Comcast homepage, tap on the curved arrow icon at the top of Safari - next to the address area - select Add to Home Screen. This will put a link on your home screen that you can tap on and it will open to the Comcast homepage.

Apr 26, 2011 12:06 PM in response to ebinellis

That's the case for the Mac, but not for the iPad. There is no menu bar and no way to set a homepage on the Safari on the iPad.

Apr 26, 2011 12:10 PM in response to PogoPossum

I completely missed the fact that this was posted in the iPad forum, I'm sorry.

You are absolutely correct my steps are for the Mac OS, and the iOS does not allow for a home page to be set.

Apr 26, 2011 1:04 PM in response to Demo

Dadralph, this is the best way.......

Give Demo a "Correct Answer" !!!

Here we go Steelers.. here we go! (if we can settle the lockout) ... and going from my terrible memory based on what I remember from the old profile I'm guessing Dolphins or Bucs????

iOS 15 Safari: How to change the address/search bar design on iPhone

Apple’s latest iOS release comes with an all-new Safari design that places the address/search bar at the bottom of the screen by default. But you can switch back to the classic iOS Safari design with a top bar. Here’s how to change the iOS 15 Safari address/search bar on iPhone.

Apple made its way through multiple iterations of the new iOS 15 Safari design and with the sixth beta , it included the option to switch between the bottom address/search bar and the classic iOS Safari top address/search bar on iPhone .

The official iOS 15 public release also includes the classic bottom menu bar instead of packing all of Safari’s buttons into the unified address/search/tab bar.

How to change iOS 15 Safari address/search bar on iPhone

• Running iOS 15, open Safari on your iPhone
• In the bottom address/search bar, tap the “aA” icon on the left (when on a website)
• Tap Show Top Address Bar
• Tap the “aA” icon in the top address/search bar
• Choose Show Bottom Tab Bar

Alternatively, you can also change the iOS 15 address/search bar by heading to the Settings app > Safari > swipe down and choose “Single Tab.”

Here’s how it looks to change the Safari address/search bar on iPhone:

And here’s how it looks to change it back to the bottom address/search bar:

The other way to change the address/search bar design is in the Settings app.

In addition to changing between the bottom and classic top address/search bar designs, you can choose to enable/disable website tinting (matches the top iPhone status bar to websites’ colors) and enable/disable the landscape tab bar.

iOS 15: How to put the Safari address bar back to the top on your iPhone

Read in other languages:

On iOS 15, Apple has moved the address bar of its Safari app to the bottom of the screen of its iPhone and iPad. If you don't like this new design, you can easily put the address bar of your Safari browser back at the top of your iPhone screen.

The idea behind this choice by Apple is to make Safari's interface more ergonomic on iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 . The search bar has been lowered so you don't have to stretch your finger to reach the top of the screen. But after years of getting used to having the address bar at the top, this turnaround may be counterintuitive for some.

• Check out our selection of the best iPhones to choose in 2022 to use Safari with the bar up or down

So, to put the Safari application address bar back to the top of your iPhone screen, you need to:

• Go to Settings .
• Press  Safari .
• Among the two options - Tab bar or Single tab - choose  Single tab .

In any case, you can switch between the new and old systems as you like. And if you change your mind, want to switch back to the address bar at the top, you can make this change in a faster way, directly in Safari and without going through Settings:

• In the Safari  application.
• Press the aA button on the left of the address bar.
• In the contextual menu, press Show Top Adress Bar .

That's it for this quick tutorial to put the Safari app's address bar back to the top of the screen on your iPhone. Did you find it helpful? Do you want us to do more iOS 15 tutorials? Top or bottom search bar, which is more ergonomic for you?

How to use the new tab bar in iOS 15 Safari

iOS 15 introduces big changes to Safari — here's how to perform old, familiar features

Safari has been a mainstay of Apple's iPhones since the very beginning, but iOS 15 brings some major changes to the venerable web browser's appearance and functionality. Perhaps the biggest alteration is in the tab bar, the part of Safari's interface that governs how you interact with all the websites you've opened. 

Most crucially, Safari's tab bar on the iPhone is now at the bottom of the screen by default, instead of the top. That takes some getting used to, not to mention an adjustment of muscle memory — assuming that you don't just go and make Safari's tab bar return to the top of the screen .

• iOS 15 review : A better iPhone experience
• Here's how to use Live Text in iOS 15

The location of the tab bar may have changed, but other functions in Safari remain the same, even if they might look a little out of place if you keep that tab bar at the bottom of the screen. iOS 15 beta testers may also be confused, as Apple made several tweaks to the look of Safari in response to feedback from users.

To help you navigate around the redesigned Safari browser on your iPhone, here's a guide on how to use the tab bar in Safari on iOS 15, along with a reminder on how to handle some basic interactions.

How to open a new browser tab in iOS 15 Safari

1. Tap the tabs button in the bottom right corner of Safari.

2. Tap the blue plus (+) button on the left side of the location bar.

3. Alternatively, tap and hold on the tab button, then tap New Tab on the pop-up menu that appears.

How to close a browser tab in iOS 15 Safari

1.   Tap the tabs button in the right corner of the location bar.

2. You'll see an overview of all your currently open tabs. Tap the 'x' in the top right corner to close a tab.

3. Alternatively, when you're viewing the page you want to close, tap and hold on the tab button, then tap Close This Tab. 

This step also allows you to close all tabs at once with a single tap.

How to share a website in iOS 15 Safari

1. Tap the Share button in the center of the location button.

2. On the ensuing screen, tap the contact you want to share a website link with (it will be in the last app you connected with them) or pick an app for sharing the link.

The Share icon is also what you tap to perform other actions with a particular web page. These actions include copying the link, adding it as a bookmark or favorite, searching for a word or phrase on the page, and adding to your reading list.

How to reload a website

If you tested an early beta of iOS 15, reloading a website was unnecessarily complicated, forcing you tap a More button in the tab bar; only then could you access the reload button. But later on during the beta process, the reload button was added to the tab bar — just tap it when you want to reload a page. 

Alternatively, you can drag down from the top of the webpage to reload it in iOS 15 Safari.

How to activate Reader mode in iOS 15 Safari

1. Tap the Aa button on the left side of the tab bar.

2. Select Show Reader.

3. You're now in Reader mode. To close Reader, just repeat steps 1 and 2, only this time, select Hide Reader.

Alternatively, pressing and holding the Aa button automatically launches Reader mode.

How to switch between browser tabs in iOS 15 Safari

1. Tap the tab button along the bottom strip of icons in Safari. 

2. Select the tab you want to open.

Alternatively, you can swipe upward on the location bar to see all your tabs. 

You can also quickly move between taps by swiping the location bar left-to-right or right-to-left to switch to the next or previous open tab, though we've found this to be tricky on iPhones with smaller screens.

How to open a new private browser tab in iOS 15 Safari

1. Press and hold the tab button in the lower right strip of icons in Safari.

2. Select new Private Tab from the pop-up menu.

3. The tab bar will change colors, signifying you're now in private browsing mode.

4. To exit a Private tab, tap on the Tab icon again. Then select the Private drop-down menu.

5. From there, select your other, non-private tabs.

Using the Menu Bar : The most direct way to access the Safari menu on a Mac is through the menu bar located at the top of the screen. Upon launching Safari, you'll notice the menu bar with options such as "Safari," "File," "Edit," "View," "History," "Bookmarks," "Develop," "Window," and "Help."

Long-Press and 3D Touch : For devices that support 3D Touch, users can access additional menu options by applying pressure to the screen. A firm press on a link or webpage element triggers a contextual menu, providing quick access to features such as opening links in new tabs, adding to reading list, and sharing content.

If you already have four apps on your iPhone Dock, you'll have to remove an app before you can add a new app icon to the Dock. If you'd like more apps in your Dock, there's a workaround we'll go over below. I will use Safari as my example because people often ask, “how do I add Safari to my dock?”

6 Tips to Improve Your Safari Experience on iPhone

A ccessing the internet on an iPhone is made simple by Safari, Apple's native web browser; it does a great job of getting you started, but there are several other features that you can leverage to enhance your user experience.

Below, we'll list some valuable tips you can use to get the most out of Safari on your iPhone. So, let's get started.

1. Modify the Start Page

The start page is the first element you usually run into when launching Safari—it's the default screen if you've not used the browser before or didn't leave any tabs open after your last session. And the first step you can take in improving your Safari experience is to customize it.

Customizing the start page involves changing the background image and choosing the sections (listed below) you want the app to show. We've added descriptions to help you understand a little more about each section.

• Favorites : This section will show all your favorite websites and bookmarks which have been added to the Favorites section on your iPhone.
• Frequently Visited : This is a collection of searches and websites you've frequented in recent months. The information is said to be a mix from all your Apple devices if you've enabled iCloud.
• Shared with You : It works by finding links, images, music, and more, sent within the Messages app, and brings them up in relevant applications. For example, if someone texted you a link via iMessage, you'll find it in this section of the start page.
• Privacy Report : This section surfaces information on the trackers used by websites you've visited in the last 30 days and showcases when your iPhone—and other Apple devices—prevented them from profiling you.
• Siri Suggestions : You can find website suggestions based on your recent browsing history, bookmarks, and open tabs within this section if you choose to use them.
• Reading List : You can find the three latest additions to your Reading List in this section, with a Show All button available in case you want to view the other articles you've added to your read later list.
• iCloud Tabs : This feature showcases up to four most recent tabs open on each Apple device you own with iCloud enabled for Safari.

To begin customizing your Safari's start page, follow the steps listed below:

• Scroll down to the bottom of the Safari start page and tap Edit.
• Now, enable the desired sections using the toggles or reorder them by pressing (and dragging) the three horizontal lines.

If you want to experience Apple's Continuity feature , toggle on Use Start Page on All Devices at the top of the edit menu. This will ensure your start page is in sync across all devices connected to your iCloud account.

2. Create Tab Groups in Safari

The next step in improving Safari on iPhone is to create and use Tab Groups . The feature lets you bring order and control to tabs by allowing you to group similar ones—or those you often use together—into folders. Ideally, you can use the feature to separate search results and websites related to work from those you open during casual browsing.

To create a Tab Group, follow the steps listed below:

• View all your tabs by tapping the Tab button in the bottom-right corner.
• Now, tap the text box at the bottom of the screen—it mentions the number of tabs open.
• In the menu that appears, tap New Empty Tab Group or the second option, New Tab Group with X Tabs .
• Name the Tab Group according to your liking and hit Save .

The X in the second option will vary based on the number of tabs open when creating a Tab Group.

3. Use Safari Extensions

Like Chrome, you can install Safari extensions to improve your browsing experience. For those unaware, these are applications built for web browsers that bring additional functionality and make your life easier.

For example, you can install applications that scour the web for coupon codes and bring them up when you're making a purchase or add ones that help edit written content to ensure you aren't making silly errors.

Adding extensions to Safari on an iPhone is a bit different compared to installing and removing extensions in Safari on a Mac . To do this, follow the steps listed below:

• Go to Settings > Safari on your iOS device.
• On the next screen, find Extensions under the General subsection and tap on it.
• You'll now see a list of extensions available. In case you see no options, tap More Extensions to visit the Safari Extensions store.

You may sometimes see options without having installed an extension before; these are present due to an application—that offers Safari extensions—installed on your iPhone from before.

Once you've installed an extension, activate it in Settings using the same steps above and then do the following:

• Open Safari and tap the AA button in the address bar.
• Now, tap Manage Extensions and select the extension you want to activate.

4. Choose Websites to Automatically Use Reader

Reader in Safari is a nifty add-on that lets you read content from a website with minimal distractions and no ads. It makes the experience quite simple and offers options like changing the page color, font, and font size.

Activating Reader is quite simple; tap the AA button in the address bar when you're on a supported webpage and choose Show Reader . However, if you frequently visit a specific website, you can configure Safari to load all its webpages in Reader. Here's what you need to do:

• Open the desired website and tap the AA button.
• In the context menu that appears, tap Website Settings .
• Now, toggle on Use Reader Automatically . Each supported webpage will now open in Reader, making it easier to read the content.

5. Set Tabs to Open in Background

Despite it being easy to access AI tools like ChatGPT on mobile for learning about things, if you prefer getting deep into the weeds when doing research, you may want to view many of the following webpages in new tabs.

By default, opening a new tab via a hyperlink will leave the old tab behind and move you to the new tab. While this behavior is fine, it can feel like a chore if you'd like to open multiple results from a search page.

Fortunately, you can change this behavior. Here's what you need to do:

• Open the Settings app, and scroll down to the Safari option.
• On this page, under the Tabs subsection, tap on Open Links .
• Now, choose In Background .

6. Configure Safari to Automatically Close Tabs

Lastly, while the ability to open many tabs in Safari is a boon, knowing ways to organize your browser and keeping it clutter-free can help you focus better and increase productivity. And keeping only a few tabs open can be a part of this regime.

Safari on iPhone also helps with this, with the ability to automatically close tabs after a set period of time; we've detailed the steps to activate the feature below:

• On this page, under the Tabs subsection, tap on Close Tabs .
• Now, choose from the available options: After One Day , After One Week , or After One Month .

Become a Safari Power User With These Changes

Each customization method listed above will help improve your Safari experience, be it with a new background image that makes the app feel more personal or a setting that keeps it clutter-free.

Overall, Safari is an excellent browser that can be made even better for power users with a few changes. And some of Apple's exclusive features make a strong case for the app, especially if you're a Mac user.

How-To Geek

How to automatically hide or show the menu bar on a mac.

Don't like seeing the menu bar on your Mac? Reclaim some space by hiding it!

Hannah Stryker / How-To Geek

Key Takeaways

• Automatically hide the menu bar by going to System Preferences > Control Center, and choosing "Always" next to the "Automatically Hide and Show the Menu Bar."
• To re-enable the menu bar, go back to System Preferences >Control Center and select "Never" or "In Full Screen Only" instead.

The Mac menu bar is constant. It's always available at the top of the screen, with menus, Control Center, and utilities. But it doesn't have to be. Here's how to automatically hide or show the menu bar on Mac.

The easiest way to reclaim some screen space on your Mac screen (other than hiding the Dock) is to hide the menu bar itself. Once it's hidden, you can still access it by moving your cursor to the top of the screen.

To enable the automatic menu bar-hiding feature, click the Apple icon, and then choose the "System Settings" option.

Scroll down in the left pane and select "Control Center."

Click on the right-hand pane, then scroll down until you see "Automatically Hide and Show the Menu Bar." Click the current setting (probably "In Full Screen Only") and select "Always" instead.

Now, the menu bar will disappear from your screen.

You can move your cursor to the top of the screen, or you can use the Fn+Control+F2 keyboard shortcut to temporarily show the menu bar. However, if you want to permanently show the menu bar, go back to the System Settings and change the setting back to "In Full Screen Only" or "Never" again.

Now that you have more screen space, here are seven Mac tweaks to boost your productivity .

How to view and clear your web browsing history in Safari on iPhone or iPad

Easily wipe your browsing history in Apple's Safari web browser in seconds.

What you'll need

How to find your web-browsing history, how to clear your web browsing history.

Clearing your browsing history on iPhone and iPad in Safari has been a straightforward affair for years now.

Sometimes you want to clear your history to get rid of bloat and streamline your browsing experience. Other times, you're trying to hide a gift purchase from a loved one.

Apple makes it very easy to clear your browsing history on both the iPhone and iPad and we're here to show you how. Here's how you can make a fresh start in Safari and debloat your web browsing experience.

On the latest models, web browsing is smoother than ever before thanks to ProMotion in the iPhone 15 Pro and faster chipsets like the M2 found in the iPad Air 6 . If you're looking for a new Apple device, we highly recommend one of the following: 

iPhone 15 Pro $999 at Apple

Grab the best iPhone available right now starting from $999. With a gorgeous titanium finish and the most powerful chip ever in an iPhone, you won't be disappointed with the 15 Pro. 

iPad Air 6 13-inch | $799 $754 at Amazon

With an M2 chip and a 13-inch screen option, the new iPad Air 6 is one of the best iPads available right now. Normally $799, you can pick up the 13-inch model for nearly $50 off at the moment — don't miss out.

Viewing your web history in iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 is very easy to do, here's how:

• In Safari, tap the Bookmarks button in the toolbar that's below the address bar.
• Tap the History icon in the upper right corner. Here, you can view your entire web history.

• Use the History search bar to find previously viewed pages.

If the time calls to wipe most or all of your web browsing history in Safari, here's how to do it on both iPhone and iPad.

To note, the below steps will be the same if you attempt to wipe your web browsing history on an iPhone 15 Pro Max or an iPad Mini 6 , all Apple devices require the same steps.

• In Safari, tap the Bookmarks button.
• Select the History icon in the upper right corner.
• Tap Clear and select how much history you'd like to clear: the last hour, the last day, 48 hours' worth, or all recorded history.

One more thing… A feature no one talks about

Privacy on the web matters more than ever in these modern times. Websites store the pages you click on, especially when you sign into a page that can contain personal information about you.

It's great to have a feature like this in Safari — but it would be good to have this automated in iOS 18 . If Apple's web browser could automatically clear history after 24 hours it would be very useful, as you wouldn't leave a trail behind.

Regardless, it's still a good feature, and one you should use every week.

Google Chrome

Chrome for iphone now lets you customize the menu bar & carousel.

Chrome for iPhone and iPad has introduced a big quality-of-life improvement with the ability to customize the menu bar. 

This is the menu that slides up when you tap the three-dot overflow menu at the right. It’s home to a carousel and the list of various actions. If you scroll down there’s a new “Customize Menu” button

Previously, the top carousel would “Show frequently used items first.” I personally found that constant shuffling annoying and bad for muscle memory. You can now turn off “Smart Sort Menu Bar.”

Save for Settings and Site Information, you can remove everything else from the carousel: Bookmarks, Downloads, History, Password Manager (which has a nice homescreen widget that opens the keyboard when tapped to let you search for stored credentials), Reading List, Recent Tabs, Track Price, and What’s New.

Meanwhile, you can rearrange and uncheck the actions list:

• Add to Bookmarks
• Add to Reading List
• Clear Browsing Data
• Request Desktop Site
• Find in Page…
• Zoom Text…

This option would be great for Chrome on Android. The overflow menu (on a Pixel 8) spans the entire height of your screen with some scrolling still required. (The option to move the address bar to the bottom would also be nice.)

We’re seeing this option to customize the menu bar on Chrome 125 for iPhone and iPad.

More on Chrome:

• Google is fixing a bug that kept showing blank tabs in Chrome for Android
• You can turn off Chrome’s Help me write suggestion 
• Gemini Nano is coming to Chrome, starting with ‘Help Me Write’
• Chrome wants to add AI features that help make common tasks easier

How to use Reader Mode in Safari on iPad

Reader Mode in Safari can help to simplify your reading experience.

Whatever your reasons may be, something about a website just may not jibe with your eyes, and that is precisely where Reader Mode on Safari comes in. Reader Mode makes getting past this issue a breeze and makes reading articles on your iPad much more pleasant.

How to use Reader Mode in Safari

Actually opening up Reader Mode is very simple, and quite literally requires just two taps. With any largely text-based web page open in Safari, you need only tap on the "Aa" icon in the left-hand side of your address bar. Once that's been tapped, you'll see the option to "Show Reader." Once you've tapped "Show Reader" the web page will convert into a succinct block of text with pictures intact.

The "Show Reader" option is available on almost every primarily text-based web page. For websites like Instagram or Amazon, Reader Mode wouldn't do anything worthwhile for you even if you could enable it.

When entering Reader Mode, all the ads and suggested content from any given website will be stripped out in favor of a succinct reading experience. With that in mind, there are still some issues you can bump into. Some webpages, despite being mostly text, won't show up properly. In some instances this can be due to how the website is written, and in others it may just be that the text on the page is embedded within an image.

Another issue that can crop is multi-paged articles and how they "cooperate" with Reader Mode. For the most part, Reader Mode will only show you the first page of a multi-paged article when turned on. For these kinds of pages, you will have to turn Reader Mode on and off to progress through the article.

How to customize Reader Mode in Safari

Once you're in Reader Mode, you may find yourself wanting to make a few cosmetic adjustments. Doing so is as simple as returning to the menu you used to open Reader Mode. Once you have the menu opened up, you'll be greeted with a few key options, including:

• Adjusting the font
• Adjusting the font size
• Changing the background color
• Individual website settings

All of these options do exactly what it sounds like they would do. The individual website settings don't offer much that pertains to Reader Mode, but there is one absolutely game changing setting you can enable here.

That setting is "Use Reader Automatically." What this option will do is make it to where Safari automatically displays pages from that website in Reader Mode. Pages that can't normally be viewed in Reader Mode will still show up as normal, but the moment you enter a page that can be viewed in Reader Mode, the change will happen automatically.

With Reader Mode in your arsenal, you'll have a much better reading experience across the web on your iPad.

How to remove AI answers from Google search on any device

In this tutorial, we will show you how to remove AI-generated answers from the top of your Google search results on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. These tips also work on an Android phone, Windows PC, and elsewhere.

Google now shows an AI-generated overview at the top of the search results page for most (not all) queries. At this point, these answers are not only unhelpful but can even get downright dangerous.

For instance, Google’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) summaries can rely on decade-old obscure Reddit answers or other web forum and website articles, including satirical ones like The Onion , to suggest outrageous answers like putting glue in pizza ,  drinking urine to fix kidney stones , or  eating one small rock every day .

If you do not want these unhelpful answers on your or your kids’ search results page, we go over various ways to remove them.

Manually go to the web tab

When you search for something on Google, it will default you to the “ All ” categories view with the AI answers at the top. Simply click  More  >  Web to get answers without all the AI nonsense.

If you’re on mobile, swipe the categories at the top and tap Web .

The rest of the tips in this guide are based on this principle to get to the “Web” section easily by default instead of “All.”

Note:  The Web view also removes some handy Google smart features. For instance, it will remove the currency conversion calculator that you usually see on top of the search results if you search for something like 32 USD in Pounds .

Use udm14.com instead of Google

Instead of  Google.com  or one of its country-specific domains like  Google.co.in , you can simply use udm14.com  as your window to search for your queries. It will show you Google search results without all the AI-generated content.

Configure a userscript for Safari

The majority of Apple users rely on Safari for their web browsing. Unlike Chrome, there isn’t an extension to remove AI answers from Google search, but you can use a clever userscript by Zenith along with a Safari extension to always see the AI-free “Web” answers on Google instead of “All” answers. This tip also works for other browsers like Chrome and Firefox.

1)  Install the  Userscripts  Safari extension from the Mac App Store.

2)  Visit  this GitHub page  and click  script.user.js .

3) Now, copy the entire code.

4) Open  Safari , go to Safari  Settings  >  Extensions , and enable the Userscripts extension.

5) Open a Safari tab and visit Google.com . Now, click the Userscripts extension icon from the toolbar and allow it to work on the website if prompted. You can prevent it from working on other sites.

6) Click the Userscripts extension icon again and select Open Extensions Page .

7) Click the  plus button  here and select  New JS .

8) Clear the placeholder text you see and paste the code you copied from GitHub here. After that, click Save .

9) Open a new Safari tab and search for something on Google. This extension, with the help of Zenith’s userscript, will automatically take you to AI-free “ Web ” results instead of “ All ” results.

Safari on iPhone and iPad also supports extensions . We will show you how to configure the extension you used on your Mac to remove AI summaries from your Google search page on mobile.

1)  Download the  Userscripts extensions from the iOS App Store on your iPhone or iPad. If you have already set up the Userscripts extension on your Mac, you can go to iOS  Settings  >  Safari  >  Extensions  and tap  Get  next to Userscripts.

2)  Open the Userscripts app and tap  Set Userscripts Directory . Now, choose a folder from your local storage in the Files app and tap Open  to set it.

3)  Next, visit  this GitHub code page  by Zenith and tap the  three dots icon  >  Download .

4) After that, go to the Downloads folder in your Files app and move the downloaded script.user.js file to the folder you set as the directory in step 2. You can copy or move the file. You can also press and hold the script.user.js file with one finger and drag it slightly. Now, use your other hand to navigate to the folder in step 2 and drop the file there.

5) After the script.user.js file is in the directory (Files app location) of the Userscripts extension, open Safari, visit Google.com , and search for something. Now, tap AA  from the address bar and select  Userscripts . Allow the extension to access Google.com if prompted. Now, you will see the  Fix Google Web Search JS file active here. If you tap it, the script becomes inactive, so don’t do that. In case you don’t see it, tap the folder icon.

6) From now on, when you search for a query in Google, it will take you to the AI-free “ Web ” results instead of “All” results, thus protecting you from AI-generated answers.

Use Chrome extensions

If you use Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Opera, and other Chromium browsers on your Mac or Windows PC, you can use extensions like  Bye Bye Google AI  or  Hide Google AI Overviews  to get rid of AI answers from your search results.

Bye Bye Google AI also lets you hide other things like Discussions and Forums and Sponsored Links from your search results.

Configure Chrome, Brave, Edge, and other Chromium browsers to remove Google AI Overviews

While the extension method is simple, if you have second thoughts about using an extension, you can manually configure your web browser to show “Web” results without AI summaries. The process is easy and will take less than a minute. We will use Chrome, but the steps are almost similar for other Chromium browsers.

1)  Open Chrome and go to its settings. You can do this by clicking  Chrome  >  Settings  from Mac’s top menu bar or by clicking the  three dots icon  from the upper right corner and selecting  Settings .

2)  Click  Search engine  >  Manage search engines and site search .

3)  Click the  Add  button next to  Site search .

4)  Fill in the following details and hit  Add :

• Name:  Google Web  or anything you like, such as  Google Without AI
• Shortcut:  @web
• URL with %s in place of query:  {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&udm=14

5)  Click the  three dots icon next to the Search engine shortcut you created and select Make default .

From now on, when you search for a query in Google, you will be taken to the “Web” results that do not show AI summaries and answers.

Set AI-free Google search engine in Firefox on iOS

If you already use Firefox on your iPhone, iPad , or Android phone or are willing to switch to it, you can easily get a cleaner AI-free Google search experience. These steps below allow you to set Google as the search engine, but with a minor change that adds udm=14&q=%s  to your search queries, thus removing AI answers.

1)  Open  Firefox  on your iPhone, iPad, or Android phone.  We are using an iPhone.

2)  Tap the hamburger  menu icon  from the lower right corner and select  Settings .

3)  Tap  Search  under the General heading.

4)  Tap  Add Search Engine .

5)  Fill in the following details and tap Save :

• Title: Give it a name. I’m going with  Google Without AI .
• URL:  https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s

6)  Now tap the entry under the  Default Search Engine  section at the top and select  Google Without AI .

7)  Open a tab in Firefox and search for a query. You will be taken to the “Web” tab, which does not show AI summaries.

If you use Chrome on iOS

Tenbluelinks.org  suggests a way to change the search engine in Chrome on iPhone and iPad, but it did not work for me. So, if you use Chrome on iOS, give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
