Search in language other than English

116 votes

This is a huge problem for non-native English users or people who take notes in multiple languages.

Right now, searching is not fully functioned in languages other than English:
-Searching in web version (chrome) only functions in English.
-Quick searching in Android version can find notes' topics in all languages. Full searching is not fully functioning in languages other than English: some terms can be found in notes, but other terms are not able to be found.

Quick search can find notes topics in all languages, but full search is not fully function language other than English. Searching is too important.

And, I can't make tags in other languages, too.

It will be fixed in a nearly future. Thanks!

punctuation doesn't work either

i'm told this search limitation broadly "doesn't support many standard symbols or non-english characters"

search for something with a period in the word (like a domain name with .com or a stock symbol) and it comes up empty

I can't use the amplenote without searching in Cyrillic.

I am really looking forward to such an opportunity to become your client.

This also applies for importing notes from e.g. markdown. I can't import my notes from obsidian without this feature. Hope for a quick solution. Thanks

I need this desperately...

For some reason I thought this had already been added (maybe it sort of works on mobile or when making inline tags), but I'd been noticing a lack of hits for my Japanese searches over the past few months when I use the main search bar...

and ofc what do you know, this is not a thing yet. Why. Just. Why.

Recently, I thought it was working for text in the body (i.e., fulltext search on desktop), but now that's not working anymore.

At least ctrl+O now seems to work for searching for stuff in TITLES...
