 Perplexica can be easily run using Docker. Simply run the following command:
 
 ```bash
-docker run -p 3000:3000 --name perplexica itzcrazykns1337/perplexica:latest
+docker run -d -p 3000:3000 -v perplexica-data:/home/perplexica/data -v perplexica-uploads:/home/perplexica/uploads --name perplexica itzcrazykns1337/perplexica:latest
 ```
 
 This will pull and start the Perplexica container with the bundled SearxNG search engine. Once running, open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000. You can then configure your settings (API keys, models, etc.) directly in the setup screen.
 
-**Note**: The image includes both Perplexica and SearxNG, so no additional setup is required.

 #### Using Perplexica with Your Own SearxNG Instance
 
 If you already have SearxNG running, you can use the slim version of Perplexica:
