About this app
Search the web. Plant trees. Power the planet.
Ecosia is more than just a search engine — it’s a simple way to take climate action every day. Just by browsing the internet, you can help plant trees in biodiversity hotspots, support local communities, and combat climate change.
🌳 Search with purpose
Like other search engines, Ecosia earns money from ads. But unlike them, we use 100% of our profits to fund climate action. Over 230 million trees have already been planted across 35+ countries, restoring landscapes and saving wildlife.
🔒 Your data stays yours
We only collect what's needed to deliver search results, and your searches are always encrypted. — We want trees, not your data.
⚡ Powered by the Sun
Ecosia runs on renewable energy. In fact, our solar plants generate twice the electricity we need to power your searches — pushing out fossil fuels from the electricity grid.
🌍 Climate positive & transparent
As a not-for-profit, steward-owned company, we publish monthly financial reports that show you exactly where your clicks go — toward real, measurable climate impact.

I love using Ecosia! I am a very curious person, so whenever I'm wondering something I'm immediately compelled to research and learn more about it, which leads me look up an average of 30 things a day. Well....what better way to make a usage of those searches than to plant trees? There are no other options out there that do good for the environment for doing everyday things like searching things up. Plus, Ecosia has features that surpass other commonly used search engines. It's perfect!

Gotta say I really do not like the new theme, it was much prettier when it was the lighter theme and the logo was like a planet. Next, the search options are VERY VERY limited compared to any other browser, and most often I can't find what I'm searching for. Finally, the pop-ups I get every time I open the app are a complete deal-breaker. Enough of a deal breaker that I'm uninstalling and going with another search engine.

This is a review for the app, not the search engine, which I like and have used for a few years. This app isn't just a search engine; it's a whole browser. It simply doesn't have enough features to be a long-term daily driver; I'm better off just using Ecosia on my browser of choice. (I don't know how many trees I've helped plant over time, since I clear the cache from time to time. 😅) No extensions, no sync, no desktop app to sync *to*. While there's an ad blocker, there's no tracker blocker.

Issue with playing video just occurred. Tried deleting and reinstalling, but whenever I play any video (even ads), the play speed is like 4x faster than normal. If I try to go, say, half speed, it goes to half of normal speed. Other than this (and image search being very mediocre), it works completely great, and is doing a lot of good. I cannot express how happy I am with it. I'm, without paying a penny, responsible for collectively around 100 trees, which includes native trees too.

I keep getting messages that "Ecosia has stopped working" and "do you want to force quit or wait?" Not just when the browser freezes, but also sometimes when it's just lagging a bit and sometimes when it's not even open amd I'm not using it. Other than that, the browser works fine, no slower than the Chrome app with very similar functions, and I'm happy to be helping a good cause!

I've never had an issue with Ecosia, and it works better than Chrome (on which I've had tons of unresolved issues). I highly recommend this browser (and it's extensions on desktop). The only thing I ask is the ability to sync your counter if one uses both mobile and desktop, if possible. Overall, incredible work, and let's hit our next milestone of 1.5 million trees!
