(Archived) Can I search by tag only?

[wwgolfer 0]

When I attempt to search for notes that I have tagged with the tag "NOW" I get not only all notes tagged NOW, but also all notes that have the word "now" in the content. Is there a way to define the search to return only those tagged this way?

I can do it on my PC by selecting the tag i want on the menu to the left of the screen, but can't do the same thing on my iPhone.

Try putting

tag:NOW

in the search box. That should do the trick.

Go to the search bar: Type:

TAG:Now

To expand a little bit, a normal text search will search through the note content, tags and note tiles for a match. If you want a tag search, use a tag: search term, as bduncan and Wern recommend above.
