Hi @mycahmason ,

This is expected behavior. Only basic search can be performed on mobile app
https://bitwarden.com/help/article/searching-vault/#basic-search

Full-text search is only available in Web Vaults, Desktop Applications, and Browser Extensions.

@sso-bitwarden Thanks for the reply and the link but I am not trying to use a Full-text Search. I am trying to do a basic search for “iCloud” (e.g. not using: >notes:iCloud) which does work in the web app as a Basic Search to return my entry with “iCloud“ (only in the Notes field) but does not work in the iOS app.

I would expect the Basic Search to include Notes after confirming it works in the web app (vs. it being a feature request) which is why I opened the issue here.

Thanks again, Bitwarden is a great app!

Item Name
Login, Username
Login, URI
Card, Brand or last four digits
