However, using search operators often requires combining alphabets and symbols with spaces, which can become cumbersome. For instance, When you want to search for "Apple Inc." articles within Wikipedia's page content, you would need to input the following: allintext: apple -fruit site:wikipedia.org The app automatically generates such commands, enabling you to perform advanced searches by just inputting keywords. The search engine used is Google.
