Dave, thanks for coming back to me. I am currently using the latest Firefox and PC Desktop apps. Search is incomplete and different in both. One will find a phrase separated by a dot (eg an email address) one will search for a password, one will search in Secure Notes, the other will not. It seems to me that for non-technical users the only obvious implementation is for all 1P apps to search for any word or phrase EXACTLY in the entire vault. The Find feature was not apparent to me until I read about it in this forum. I guess that it's a work around?
It's only a decent search facility that makes my 650 logins and notes usable.
Rant over - thanks for helping me to organise and secure my data for several years now.
