Wouldn't the apps you use track anyway? For example would it be pointless to use searX on an app like chrome, firefox or duck?
I believe the idea is that searx strips out tracking/data from the queries sent and recieved from engines.
There's some info here
As for the browser tracking you, yes. It doesn't matter what search engine you use on a browser like Chrome it can still track you.
