I stand corrected, my desk top version automatically shows all the notebooks where the item is found before I even finish typing, and the mobile app for some reason shows only one notebook until I hit the search key (magnifying glass), then all notebooks where the search term was found suddenly appear. This behavior along with this topic content made me jump to an incorrect conclusion. Apologies, the mobile app does indeed search all notebooks AND all content inside notebooks just as the desktop version does as far as I can tell. Regards, Jay

You can't see the "search in note" option unless you open a specific note first which kind of defeats the purpose in my opinion. It astounds me that evernote would argue the usefulness of search functions being able to scan inside notes also. That is fundamental guys ! If I forget where I filed something in my thousands of notes , I want to be able to select "All Notebooks" and search for any term and get a list of the notes that contain that term, just like the desktop version. I just realized the mobile app will not do this. I may begin experimenting with one-note. Regards,
