“In just a few days, Apple will be launching iOS 8, its latest version of the mobile operating system used on the iPhone.

One of the new features in the operating system will be the ability for a user to selectDuckDuckGo, the self-proclaimed “search engine that focuses on smarter answers, less clutter, and real privacy” as the iPhone iOS 8′s default search engine.

Not familiar with DuckDuckGo? Well you should be, considering the iPhone is still the go-to smartphone, according to our recent consumer trends study.

So in advance of a potential new flood of users, we sent a survey to more than 500 people via SurveyMonkey Audience to get a better understanding of who’s already using DuckDuckGo and to learn how people feel about their online privacy.”
