On your Android phone or tablet, go to google.com. At the top right, tap your profile picture or initial. Choose your search settings. At the bottom, click Save.

A general preference is something you like more as a whole. It is not tied to a specific event or time. It is simply a fact about your likes. For example, you probably like one style of music more than another style. And, you like one kind of food more than another food.

If you choose one thing in preference to another thing, you choose it because you like or want it more than the other thing: He studied chemistry in preference to physics at theuniversity. I have a preference for blond men over dark. My preference is for savory food over sweet.
