Better Google Search 제작자: emvaized

I was always annoyed that Google Search pages started using "G" icon, which doesn't resemble anything related to the search itself. So I wrote this tiny extension which replaces it with a themed magnifying glass icon, similar to a Bing one.

In addition, it provides few smaller tweaks to make using the service a little easier. For now only works on google.com domains, not local ones (google.ru, google.es etc).

• Change favicon to a magnifying glass icon
• Make whole search result clickable, like in DuckDuckGo
• Keyboard navigation between results with arrow keys. Spacebar/Enter to select the current one
• Remove https:// from URLs

All options can be toggled from the settings page.


This script was originally called Google Search Tweaker, which I created back in 2021. Eventually I abandoned it because it became tedious to keep up with constantly changing layout of the Google search page. With version 3.0 I rewrote it from scratch as much simpler and faster script. It is super lightweight, and can now also be used as a Userscript.
