Overview

DuckDuckGo Android

Welcome to our android application. We are excited to engage the community in development, see CONTRIBUTING.md.

We are hiring!

DuckDuckGo is growing fast and we continue to expand our fully distributed team. We embrace diverse perspectives, and seek out passionate, self-motivated people, committed to our shared vision of raising the standard of trust online. If you are a senior software engineer capable in either iOS or Android, visit our careers page to find out more about our openings!

Building the Project

We use git submodules and so when you are checking out the app, you'll need to ensure the submodules are initialized properly. You can use the --recursive flag when cloning the project to do this.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/duckduckgo/android.git

Alternatively, if you already have the project checked out, you can initialize the submodules manually.

git submodule update --init

Terminology

We have taken steps to update our terminology and remove words with problematic racial connotations, most notably the change to main branches, allow lists, and blocklists. Closed issues or PRs may contain deprecated terminology that should not be used going forward.

Contribute

Please refer to contributing.

Discuss

Contact us at https://duckduckgo.com/feedback if you have feedback, questions or want to chat. You can also use the feedback form embedded within our Mobile App - to do so please navigate to Settings and select "Leave Feedback".

    You have bookmarks so please add a basic import/export to them. Would make starting from scratch a lot smoother to be able to import from a file like a standard browser if we choose to.

    There were two issues: (1.)When we visit Reddit or Twitter they show bottom-anchored content which got partially hidden. (2.)Website like https://sketch.io/sketchpad/ contains canvas was not working properly, because someone added the AppBar hide functionality to fix the above issue, which was not the correct approach.

    Steps to test this PR

    (1) .First issue fix can be tested by visiting Twitter and Reddit without login. (2.) We can test the second issue fix by visiting https://sketch.io/sketchpad/ and drawing something on canvas.

  • ViewBinding migration (replacing kotlin synthetics)

    ViewBinding migration (replacing kotlin synthetics)

    Description

    We are currently migrating to ViewBinding since Kotlin synthetics have been deprecated.

    This is a great opportunity for contributors to help our Android team.

    We are accepting contributions to remove kotlin synthetics usages and replace them by using ViewBinding.

    Inside our codebase, we have already migrated a bunch of classes that you can use as a reference:

    • Fragments: InitialFeedbackFragment, ShareOpenEndedFeedbackFragment, etc.
    • Dialogs: DaxDialog
    • RecyclerView.ViewHolder: AppIconsAdapter,SearchSuggestionViewHolder, BookmarkSuggestionViewHolder,
    • CustomView: TabSwitcherButton

    How to work on this issue

    But there are still some pending migrations.

    • Fragments: EmailAutofillTooltipFragment, SavedSiteDialogFragment, DefaultBrowserPage, WelcomePage, BrowserTabFragment, DownloadConfirmationFragment
    • Dialogs: FireDialog
    • Adapaters: BookmarksAdapter, FavoritesAdapter, BookmarkFolersAdapter, FavoritesQuickAccessAdapter, etc...
    • CustomView: TrackerNetworkLeaderboardPillView

    Just leave us a comment that you would like to work on the issue and what classes you will migrate. That will avoid conflicts with other contributions migrating the same classes.

    Thanks!

  • Enable swipe-to-refresh for browser tabs

    Enable swipe-to-refresh for browser tabs

    • Including SwipeRefreshLayout dependencies & adapted fragment

    • Minor fix for DuckDuckGoWebView to work with SwipeRefreshLayout

    Resolves: #33

    Description: Based on PR by @malmstein #750. Fixes the weird swipe behavior in conjunction with the custom WebView (was too sensitive and did not block WebView scrolling/tapping during refresh swipe). Some concerns and open issues:

    • Refresh triggered by swipe does not change or block the toolbar refresh button. Can be added if required. I left it out for now as there's no behavior so far on that button (can be tapped multiple times).
    • Had some problems with the swipe refresh indicator's edge/shadow showing at the toolbar when one releases early. Solved this with l. 858 BrowserTabFragment - there's probably a nicer way to do this? Sorry I'm not really much of an Android dev.
    • Could not find a way to handle a scrollable area (e.g. textarea) at the top of the page, not sure if this a blocker? Here's an example https://jsfiddle.net/4koayw5g/show - Chrome seems to handle this. WebView does not seem to support telling us whether we are scrolling some element on the page.

  • Open search results in external browser

    Open search results in external browser

    Now there are two options in Use External Browser: Never - results and sites are opened directly in app Always - results are redirected to default browser

    Please add something between: Just sites - search results are displayed in app, but sites are opened in default browser.

    This solution works perfectly with "flying" browsers line flyperlink, because you can open many results one by one, and then browse them later.

  • Missing dark mode for websites

    Missing dark mode for websites

    Describe the bug

    The browser is minimal, privacy friendly and buttery smooth. One of the main reasons I am unable to use it as my default browser is the lack of dark mode in websites. Just like in other browsers, why doesn't duckduckgo have an option to force dark mode in all websites? For the very few websites that supports dark mode, there's a flash of white screen while loading it or going back which is very annoying. Am I missing something or there's some technical reasons behind it? Also, can this feature be implemented in the future?

    After researching for someime regarding the issue, I found that the devs are willing to do so but hesitant to force it as it might behave unexpectedly for the websites which doesn't support it. However, dark mode in websites for Duckduckgo is one of the most demanded featue request and there are many people like me who can't use duckduckgo just because of this. Like common guys it's going to be 2023 in less than a week from now and there's still no dark mode support for websites.

    The perfect solution according to me would be to give an experimental or labs tab under which users have the option to force dark mode for all websites instead of just closing duckduckgo and searching on chrome/opera or any browser.

    How to Reproduce

    1. Open Duckduckgo.
    2. Search for anything.
    3. Click on the desired website (which doesn't have native dark mode).

    Expected behavior

    Users must be given an option to force use dark mode for all websites.

    Environment

    - DDG App Version:5.145.3
- Device: Samsung Galaxy M12 (Indian variant)
- OS: Android 12
