Bing? WITAF?

23 Ultra. Verizon. Both December updates done.

So, open Google browser. Type in a random search. About 50% of the time it shows a BING window for the search.

If I hit the 3 dots for settings BING is at the bottom of that list!

I have done all the normal stuff. Delete history, looked through all settings on the entire phone, including MS SwiftKey, searched BING everywhere.

Nada.

Anyone had this happen?

Thanks
 
Just to be sure -- open Chrome, then to its settings and look at the Search Engine option. Is Google set as default or Bing?
Here are screenshots that show what you mentioned for the OP to see.

In your original post, you said "Google browser." Can you confirm that you're talking about Chrome?

Swiftkey keyboard has bing search which are both by Microsoft so if those other menu in Chrome are off I think it's the keyboard

I am able to use Google search engine in Chrome when I use SwiftKey. Changing my keyboard app makes no difference for me. I use SwiftKey, Gboard and Samsung Keyboard and all three use Google search without me needing to change anything.
