Feature description

A search function could come in handy which narrows the offered notes by typing into the search field.

Why do you want this feature?

It happens that I have a mess of notes and I miss an option to jump to a note faster than scrolling through a long list of notes.

Additional information

Related is a search funktion for text (in text notes) or checkbox items in checklist notes.

But the search for a specific note is my main concern.

Thanx for pushing this on.

Agreed 100%. There really needs to be a way to search among all notes & checklists, but also inside a single note/checklist.

I need this feature as well. Scrolling through a big checklist to check a particular item is time consuming. A search would simplify this.

Yes it is a must have feature, else how can I find in hundert notes, the note I need!?

Can we modify the subject to:
Search/Filter all notes/checklists functionality in Open Note Window
it maybe more clear

MJ PDF has a very handy search system…

when you follow a search result, a panel appears at the bottom with “Search Results” and 'Done'. 'Search Results' lets you go back to the search results page, and 'Done' ends the search session.

it would be great to implement this system in Fossify Notes as well (if possible), making global search.
