Find it with the words you remember

No exact keywords needed. It also tells you what each result matched on.

Type the words you actually remember into Search anything… at the top of Home.

Plain speech is fine — “that place in Kyoto I saved last week”. You do not have to recall the exact title.

Search results. Each row says whether the match came from the title, the AI summary, or a note
Every result tells you what it matched on.

It tells you what matched

Each result carries the place the match came from.

  • Matched title
  • Matched AI summary — the summary the AI wrote, not something you typed
  • Matched screenshot OCR — text read out of an image
  • Matched my note
  • Matched tags

That is a hint for how to search next. If it matched the summary, the words are not in the body.

When nothing comes up

If you get Nothing found, try other words, or the fragment you do remember. You do not need the whole thing.

Repeat a search and it stays under Frequent searches, so next time you just pick it.
