Will you succeed where others have failed?

Technology giant has stepped up efforts to develop independent search service • First signs can already be found in the company's new operating system • Reason: US Department of Justice lawsuit against Google • All details

Google, behind you: Apple has recently stepped up its efforts to develop a new search engine in order to offer its users an alternative - according to a report in The Financial Times.

The move comes amid a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Department of Justice against Google for violating antitrust law, as it pays Apple billions of dollars to make its search engine the default in its products.

According to the publication, the first signs of the change can be seen in the latest version of Apple's mobile operating system, iOS 14, where it now first displays its own search results after typing, whereas in the past it was done using Google's search engine.

At the same time, Apple has increased the activity of "Applebot", a scanner that collects information about sites across the network, in order to increase the database.

Apple has recruited a number of experts in the field in recent years, including John Giantra who joined the development team of personal assistant Siri, and was the head of the development team of the Google search engine.

In addition, CNBC reported that Apple is recruiting engineers in the field in job ads it publishes

As you may recall, in the lawsuit against Google it was alleged that it used its power to eliminate competitors all over the internet and became the gatekeeper for entering the web, while 92% of internet searches are done using its engine.

Now, it is estimated that Apple is preparing for the possibility that it will no longer be able to use Google's services.
