features
Find anything across your entire vault instantly. The search index covers note content, titles, tags, and front matter.
MoreInfo indexes your entire vault and keeps the index in sync as you write. Search results appear as you type with no delay, even across thousands of notes.
Press ⌘F to open the global search panel. The cursor moves to the search field and results populate immediately. Press Escape to close.
To search within the current note only, use ⌘G (find in file).
The search index lives in your vault's SQLite cache file. It is rebuilt automatically from scratch if you delete the cache.

Results show a title and a snippet of context around each match, with the search term highlighted. Click a result to open the note — the search term is also highlighted in the editor at every occurrence.
Use ↑/↓ arrows to move through results without leaving the search panel. Press Enter to open the selected result.
Because search is instant, many users prefer it over the sidebar for navigating their vault entirely by title. Press ⌘F, type the first few letters of a note name, and Enter — faster than clicking through a folder hierarchy.
