Currently, global search does search for text within notes, but it doesn't give any indication where the search string was found within the note, which makes it useless for large notes. An alternative would be a separate search field for notes.

I've had response from Enpass back in 2018 that this feature was already on the roadmap, but it never materialised. I don't think this is very unusual use case, there are few other queries in forums requesting the same feature. Currently, to search within notes I have to edit the note, copy all text, paste to notepad, then search in there - hardly an elegant solution...

We understand it's been long, however, we will try our best to have this feature in our upcoming versions.

Did we get this fixed? It is a basic functionality.

This is a major issue and if search cannot highlight the search results then it means a person wouldn't know the results position and cannot use enpass.

Could you please consider this change be done sooner?

Thanks

 

Hi @Dannyk2005,

I wanted to share that we already have this feature, make sure to select the "field" option while searching. For example, let me share you a screenshot of my Enpass Windows version.

Thanks  but this does not work on the notes and which is very important. Because enpass have a separate notes as well as notes attached to the bank (or any other items) entry.
