I used that every day as long as I could. But I am one of "the handful of users" with the Apple Intelligence bug on my new iPhone 17 Pro. So I can't use it any longer, which is very frustrating.

Did you try the same searches with GPT-5 Auto? It would be interesting how often it would automatically select Thinking to come to the same results. Also interesting: Would Perplexity "Best" select GPT-5 or GPT-5 Thinking or another model for these searches?

Aren't other search engines like DuckDuckGo and Ecosia also paying Apple for traffic acquisition? I thought that's the main reason why they offer their own browser apps, to avoid these payments.
