App "Search" Not Finding Local Content
4.5
You search for a contact or a message inside an app, but it says "No Results" even though you know it exists.
Symptoms
- Search failure
- Missing results
- Slow indexing
Possible Causes
- Indexing paused
- Database corruption
- Permissions revoked
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Re-index the App
Some apps have a "Rebuild Index" button in their settings.
2
Check "Contacts" Permission
If the app can't see your contacts, it can't search them.
3
Clear App Data
Forces the app to rebuild its local database from the server.
When to See a Technician
Search relies on a "map" of your data; if that map is out of date, search will fail.
