There is a little magnifying glass in my address bar with a plus in it I click on this and it opens a box with a + and - I just click on which ever way I want/need to go. I use the browser called DuckDuckGo .com. I love this browser as it blocks trackers throughout the internet.

However, when I finally applied more pressure turning it to the left, it finally opened. It doesn't have a normal screw type mechanism and you will also find that when you close it after taking it off, you have to be sure it is locked in place or it will fall off.

That is incorrect, I think you're confused about the difference between search engines and browsers. DuckDuckgo is a search engine, not a browser. If you don't believe me, search "what is duckduckgo". Every single response will tell you it's a search engine.
Who ever set up your mobile phone or tablet set DuckDuckGo to be the default search engine and it probably has an easy to access button. But when you click enter on whatever you're searching for, it will open a browser window, be it Chrome (Google), Firefox, Edge, Safari, etc.
