Personalise Your Google Search Experience
Google Search offers settings to customise language, region, appearance and autocomplete. These controls help users tailor their browsing experience and discover relevant information. Open Search settings to review available options and adjust them according to your preferences, device requirements and everyday search habits.
Change Language and Region Preferences
Adjust your preferred display language and regional settings to find information relevant to your needs. These options are useful when researching international news, local developments or products across different markets. Review available language and region controls in Google Search settings to personalise your results.
Control Explicit Content With SafeSearch
SafeSearch helps filter explicit content from Google Search results. Choose Filter to block detected explicit material, Blur to obscure explicit images, or Off to disable this filtering. Account restrictions or network administrators may limit changes. Review the available options to match your browsing preferences.
Review Search Personalisation and Privacy
Google provides controls to manage search activity and personalised experiences. Review Search customisation and Web and App Activity settings to understand how your information influences results. You can adjust available preferences to suit your privacy needs and make informed decisions about your Google Search experience.
Understand Google AI Overviews
AI Overviews display AI-generated summaries within Google Search results. They help users understand topics quickly and explore supporting information through links. However, these summaries can contain errors. Verify important claims using multiple reliable sources and consult original material before relying on AI-generated information for critical decisions.
Manage AI Experiments Through Search Labs
Search Labs allows eligible users to explore experimental AI features. Sign in to your Google Account, open Search Labs and review available experiments. Switch off experiments you no longer want to use. However, disabling an experiment does not remove every AI Overview from regular Google Search results.
Access Traditional Web Search Results
Prefer website links over AI-generated summaries? Run a Google search and select the Web filter, which may appear under additional options. This view displays text-based links without AI Overviews. Google does not provide a universal setting to disable every AI Overview, making the Web filter a practical alternative.
