    I recently looked at my iPhone‘s traffic and was painfully reminded at how it sends every keystroke you type into the home screen search to Apples servers by default.

    Every. Single. Keystroke. Instantly.

    Just searching for a contact, an appointment or a local file? Doesn’t matter, it gets sent to Apple anyways.

    You probably want to turn this off!
    Go to Settings -> Search and disable „show related content“.
    This disables web search in the launcher, but what do we have browsers for?
