Search Keywords AND / NOT / OR
We need to combine keywords in searches in such a way that we can AND, NOT or OR the various elements, e.g.: group:Today AND NOT is:completed
Along with this effort, we will seek to reduce the fuzziness of the current search engine matching, which tends to err too far on the side of including results with over-fuzzy matches.

RajeevThis boolian system should also apply to tags: "home AND evening," for instance, or "home OR work" or "work NOT administrative" etc.

TaraAlso need to be able to search for things like notes with no tags at all, or tasks with no due dates and so on.

Mark LopezStricter search would also be good, so we can search for things like ios and not get results like studios.

Lucian AdminAs an update:
AND-search is possible now by shift+clicking tags (or by typing "in:tag1,tag2,tag3").
"group:untagged" will return all notes with no tags asigned. -

EricI think it could be useful to save these as a shortcut also.
I.e. “-group:work” or “NOTgroup:work” as a task shortcut pulls tasks from all tags except “work” -

ScottI'd specifically like to be able to search for notes with a certain tag AND tasks in different states (completed|active|hidden). E.G., notes tagged as projects with no active or hidden tasks

weirdI'd want to be able to do *exact* searches too. Why is everyone here beating around the bush as like exact search is hard and we just need to inch towards it? Exact search is the easier kind of search lol.
We need things like exact search with quotes, and wildcards with *, and regex search
See this Discord feature request for examples about why not having exact search can make your life hell: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360043045592-Exact-search
I've been waiting for this for years in Discord. Don't make me wait years for it in Amplenote. -

VincentSearch results ranking based on backlinks would help a lot!
