  Search is critical for note taking applications and individual note highlights makes search effective.

  Yeah search feels broken to me. Makes it really hard to find what I am looking for when it's just a huge list with no highlight to show me which specific result I am looking for. I have to guess which note contains the info, and then scroll through the note to try and find the keyword. Pretty useless IMO

  also pictures should highlight if the text is in OCR

  I agree with Mark Smith on the Image text OCR highlight. This is a big reason why Evernote remains in my workflow.

  I believe the whole point of Amplenote is to bring ideas from different points of thought together so they can be linked, clarified, and something powerful created. The fact that searches for words do not highlight the words, can be addressed with an additional find in the page search, but this stunts creativity.

  If you mean that after opening a note from search, the matched text should be highlighted, I totally agree
  
  Would also be nice if at least on mobile it jumped to the first occurrence of a match in the note
  
  I guess this is also closely related with the idea of being able to search within a note you're viewing on mobile, and with support for non-fuzzy/exact searches, since with fuzzy search it might be unclear where exactly to jump to/what exactly to highlight

  This is the one missing feature which makes it impossible for me to start using Amplenote.

  When this feature will get implemented? This has been requested from 2022.

  @Joseph - this will soon be available in the Electron clients we are building for Windows/macOS.

  @Lucian:
  Is there an electron client planned for Linux?

  Yes, Amir! An Electron client for Linux should be out some time this summer (exact release date prone to change).

  When this feature will be available? This is badly needed
