Is it possible to default to a host name instead of a search query on Chrome for Android? I would like to type in &quot;server&quot; in the address bar in Chrome on Android, and have it go to http://server (like things worked in the old days) rather than searching Google for the word &quot;server&quot;.  Is this possible to do?
I'd also consider other browsers, such as Brave, if they have this feature.  Thanks!
If you have root on the device, you should be able to access and edit your host file on-device.  If you don't have root, you can still look into:

configuring something at the router level,
add site as a search engine (I know Vivaldi supports this), or
search for browsers that support &quot;!bangs&quot;.
