Search Doesn't Work On Android

Sorry to post yet again but I have found another problem with the Android app. The search doesn't work. Yes, I can do a search, but regardless of what I search the same threads pop up. This is annoying because I keep trying to search things so I don't have to start a new thread but can't find tthe info I need.

How many letters in the words your searching? I believe it will only search 4 letter words and bigger.

Searched 2 words and everything came up.

Not sure what you mean by that. I'm saying typing "the" or "BF3" won't be searched, must be 4 letters or more to be a searchable word.

I believe it's that way anyway.

Yes I know. For example I searched "Model-T" (minus the quotations) and I got completely random things that have nothing to do with a Model-T.

It's like this with the iPod app too :/

I was just about to switch to my iPod and try this, thanks for the heads up.

Tried it and seems to work better

Your probably searching for titles and posts, due to the way it searches any post in the entire GTP with the word "Model" ( T is to short, the dash counts as a space)
So if in a thread someone typed "model" the thread would be displayed in your search in order of most recent posting date 👍 Also I don't know about Android but on the iPod you can change to just searching titles by pressing the blue arrow 👍
