English search also has problems

There is also a problem with English search.
For example, if I save a password called "hello word", I can only search for the password by searching for "hello" or "word". The password cannot be found by searching for any key letter, searching for "or" or "ell". When using the IOS APP, it can be searched by any key letter.

1Password Version: 8.6
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Not Provided

    Hi @eanznj, thank you for your feedback here, and I'm sorry the search functionality hasn't met your needs. I have added your and viswiz's comments here to our discussion around the issue on how search can be improved, and filed a vote on your (eanznj's) behalf. Viswiz's has been tallied already. 🙂

    Search in 1PW8 seems to be equally bad for all languages. The support's answer for months is they are constantly working to improve the search experience (and other aspects of 1PW8)

    The search function in version 8 is simply terrible. Chinese also cannot be searched normally. Are there no official plans to fix it?

    It's a well known problem since 1PW8 was introduced and AgileBits is working on it... sadly without any real progress so far. If search doesn't work as expected you could try filter from menu or via shortcut (cmd+alt+f or ctrl+alt+f).

    In my opinion it's time to 'replace' the awfull new search used in 1PW8 by the one used in all previous versions.
