Search doesn't work at all? (alien.top)

I am trying to search on the Windows app. I have notes that have my search term (converted from handwriting to text) and I have tags with that same term. If I search for that same term I get no results.

What am I doing wrong?

Search will find text in titles. Period.

As far as I can tell, search will not find any of these:

* text from conversions

* text you type into notebooks (!)

* tags (!)

* contents of pdfs

* contents of ebooks

Only titles.

If you're IN a notebook, you can search for text from conversions or typing. But you can't FIND that notebook based on what's in it.

Yep.

Search is rather basic at the moment. Hopefully this aspect of the software will improve.
