When searching for a keyword, say, "insurance", todoist will suggest the first three results. But it doesn't prioritize the title of the task over other criteria, so I have situations where I search for "Insurance", and some (or all) of the three results are tasks that don't have insurance in the title, but have them in the description (sometimes it is like the 200th word), but tasks like "Review car insurance" won't show up. I have to click on "Show more results" and browse the full list. In the attached image (seguro = insurance), the results #1, #4, #5, #6 and #7 doesn't have "seguro" in the title, but somehow are rated more relevant than #8, #9 and #10 that have "seguro" in the title. In the case of #10 it is even the first word! I contacted todoist, #931901, and they were very nice and polite, but the takeaway was "At the moment, Todoist search results are sorted by factors like priority and project order, rather than always placing title matches above description matches. " and "I’ve passed this on to our product team as feedback, so it can be considered as part of future improvements to search. " So basically, they don't consider this a bug. I am the only one finding this functionality buggy? I rely in todoist to store not only tasks but also notes (I know it is not the right tool for notes, but that way I can benefit from having everything in one place to simplify search). This weird search behavior is degrading a lot my experience.

Search results in Todoist has always been a frustration for me. You can't search for specifics.
