WHY WNSTN EXISTS

Winston finds things.
Now there's an app for that.

Winston loves hide-and-seek. He'll search the house for a toy, or your pockets if he thinks you've hidden a treat.

The app began with a smaller search problem: wanting a quick search widget without installing Google's app or moving searches into another browser.

Wnstn is the shortcut between knowing what you want and choosing where to find it.
