The question is, of course, if the dives that don't have Sodwana in their trip location, mention Sodwana anywhere else, e.g. as tag or in the Notes (if you have that enabled in the settings),
etc.

After all, this is a full text filter (and you can pick in the settings if it is case sensitive and if the
notes are included in the search). Does this explain the behavior?

Dirk, of course you are absolutely correct. The search term was contained in one of the notes on a dive trip. I assumed that the notes field is not included in the search scope. Three points:

1) It would make the search facility more useful if there was an option to turn off including the notes in the search scope. Including the notes within the search scope has a significant use in its own right, but I suspect that by far the majority of searches would not involve interest in the dive notes but would rather focus on dives with a specific buddy or at a dive site or using specific suit or dive mode (e.g. OC, CCR).

2) I suspect the filter does not allow searching by date?

3) I have noticed a small bug in the filter text at the top of the screen but I am struggling to re-generate this issue. I am looking at a reliable way to generate this and I will report in a separate mail.

This is an impressive facility in the mobile version.

Kind regards,

willem
