What people are saying
★★★★★3.3Based on public user reviews · 55 reviews
Reviewers praise Qwant's privacy-first approach and search quality as a Google alternative, but report inconsistent results regionally, lack of customer support, and usability friction with search integration.
Pros
- Privacy-respecting by default with no tracking or user profiling
- Balanced search results across political spectrum
- Reliable daily-use search engine for many users
- European-based alternative to dominant US search engines
Cons
- Regional search results inconsistent, particularly for non-US news
- No customer support available for issues
- Search toolbar integration requires visiting website instead
- Location tracking via maps contradicts privacy promises
