Just submitted feedback as well. This is honestly what’s holding me back from buying a Kagi subscription at this point. Here is what I submitted:
I’m requesting that iOS Safari allow users to set any search engine as their default, rather than limiting choices to a pre-approved list. Currently, Safari only offers Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, and Ecosia, preventing users from choosing legitimate alternatives like Kagi.
While workarounds exist, they’re cumbersome and don’t provide a seamless experience. Please consider allowing users to add custom search engines as default options, similar to macOS Safari. This would enhance user choice without compromising security.
Thank you for considering this feedback.

The extension is working really well for me. You could always try it out with the free version to see if it works for you as well.
Don't let this hold you back. Use a mobile browser that lets you use Kagi; it's worth it.
Or even better, a computer that does things when told.
Arm macs are very hard to walk away from.
My dream is some of boot-to-Ubuntu setup, or even running it simultaneously.
If you can tell me what phone can give me access to all the standard apps I would need, has good build quality, doesn’t funnel my data to Google, is backed by an entity capable of providing multi-year device support, has cloud storage integration that lets me keep my data securely offloaded from the phone’s storage, can handle modern apps and websites as far as performance, has a very good camera, and has the equivalent of AppleCare such that if/when I shatter my screen I can replace it for $30, I am all ears.

The problem is that I like how Safari works better than any other mobile browser I have used. Wish I didn’t.
When was the last time you tried Orion on iOS? It's gotten noticeably better, and works as well as Safari for me these days.

I am pretty that is exactly the point for Apple.
