Why can’t I remove duck duck go from search engine options on my iPhone? I want my safari option back!

I cannot remove duck duck go from the search engine options; it has replaced the Safari Search Engine Option I had. I hate it! Please Help Remove From IPhone! There should be an option to remove it!

I do not recall having any options other than those in your screenshot. The choices are incorporated in iOS and are unalterable.

You cannot.

I suspect something else is going on. Is there something wrong with the way your iPhone is working? The appearance of a search engine selection has no more effect on an iPhone's operation than a selection of an alert sound or anything else.
