# SmartBox

The SmartBox is the main [Yandex Browser](https://browser.yandex.com/) element for entering URLs and searching for information. The Yandex search engine is normally used to search for answers to your query. You can [change your search engine](https://yandex.com/support/browser/en/search-and-browse/search-settings.md#by-default) if you want to. You can't disable or remove the SmartBox.

To find the answer to your question or to visit a specific website:

1. Enter a search query, address, or name of a website in the SmartBox.
1. Press **Enter**.


{% list tabs %}

- Search query

  
  ![](../_image/qwery.png){.border-yes}
  

- Website address

  
  ![](../_image/site-adress.png){.border-yes}
  

- Website name

  ![](../_image/site-name.png){.border-yes}

{% endlist %}

To open the home page of a site by clicking its domain in the SmartBox:

1. Click **![](../_image/settings-icon.svg)** → **Settings** → **Interface**.

    
1. In the **SmartBox** section, enable the options **Use «domain > title» format for page addresses** and **Open home page of site when clicking the domain in SmartBox**.

## Search suggestions {#suggests}

_Search suggestions_ are popular searches that start with the same characters as your query.

The suggestions list appears beneath the search bar and changes as you enter new letters in the search bar. When you see a suggestion that matches your query, you can select it by using the mouse or the **Up** or **Down** keys. To go to the search results, press **Enter**.

You can make your query more specific by adding text to the selected suggestion.

Yandex Browser provides answers to common questions in the search suggestion list. For example, you can find out the depth of Lake Baikal or the height of Mt. Everest without going to the search results. You can also enter a phone number that you got a call from into the [SmartBox](*Умную-строку). If this number has been used for advertising purposes and there has been enough online feedback about this number, you will see a warning in the suggestions.

If you make a typo in the site address, Yandex Browser may offer corrections. To do this:

1. Click **![](../_image/settings-icon.svg)** → **Settings** → **General settings**.

    
1. In the **Search** section, disable **Offer corrections for typos in site addresses**.

If you don't want to see suggestions in Yandex Browser, disable them:

1. Click **![](../_image/settings-icon.svg)** → **Settings** → **General settings**.

    
1. Under **Search**, deselect **Show suggestions when entering addresses and queries**.


## Copy or share the page URL {#copypanel}

Left-click the SmartBox to bring up the **Copy** and **Share** buttons:

- To copy a URL to your clipboard, click **Copy**.
- To share a link with your friends, click **Share** and choose a social network or email address.
