Latest version
Version 1.2
Released Apr 7, 2026 - 66.25 KBWorks with firefox 140.0 and later, android 142.0 and laterChangelog 1.2 (7.4.2026)- Fixed clearing behavior for the global query fallback. When a page clears a query and that text matches the current global fallback, the global fallback is now cleared as well.
- Applied the same global query clearing rule to both explicit banner clears and automatic clears after selected text is cancelled.
- Improved persistence of user-added search engines during startup and extension updates. Existing engines are now restored more safely instead of being overwritten during initialization.
- Added a backup storage path for search engines to improve recovery if the primary search engine list becomes empty.
- Limited the global query fallback to newly opened tabs. Already used tabs no longer reuse the last global query automatically when loading a search engine homepage.

Version 1.1
Released Apr 5, 2026 - 64.91 KBWorks with firefox 140.0 and later, android 142.0 and laterChangelog 1.1 (5.4.2026)
- Fixed query transfer in Blind Mode. Search queries are now preserved correctly even when the banner is hidden.
- Added a global query fallback for tabs without a tab-specific query. UFO Search can now reuse the most recent query from another tab.
- Added a new advanced setting for global fallback duration. The default is 10 minutes, and 0 disables the global fallback.
- Improved fallback behavior after manually clearing a query. If the query is explicitly cleared from the banner, it will no longer be immediately restored from the global fallback in that same tab.
- Improved mobile rendering of the compact UFO Search banner icon. The small banner icon now uses a higher-resolution source, making it appear sharper on phones and other high-DPI screens.
- Updated the Thesaurus favicon URL. Replaced the broken favicon source with the current working URL.
- Improved internal compatibility and submission readiness for extension validation.Source code released under GNU General Public License v3.0 only
