In November 2020, usability enhancements and core improvements to relevance search were introduced on the web. These additions make information discovery fast and easy.

We are now bringing this experience to mobile. These improvements include a user-friendly search experience and smart suggestions during search. The usability enhancements help you interact with search in a familiar and recognizable way, making it an essential part of how you navigate through model-driven Power Apps.

Ability to Search from any page in the app

Search is conveniently placed in the header to allow you to access search capabilities quickly.

Zero query results

Recent searches and recently accessed records will show on the search page. This personalized experience allows you to get to your records quickly without having to perform additional search.

Suggested results as you type

As you begin typing in the search bar, an intelligent search service provides you relevant data that align with your search text. Search is evolving to help you be more productive in exploring your data.
