S-Finder is amazing!!

eyecon82 · Apr 12, 2014

it is so much better than the google phone search...

say you want to look up someones phone number or email.....before you would have to go into contacts and search

now you just pull down the notification bar, click s-finder, type in their name and everything comes up

IMHO, S finder not so useful, then Google now

what I needed was an universal phone search....contacts, calendar, birthday, notes, tasks, phone numbers, etc....

google now does not do that well.....

this one does it just like iphones

this was one of my main gripes about Android (I switched from an iphone about a year ago)...no readily accessible system-wide search. I still think S Finder is kinda slow but it's definitely better than nothing :good::good::good:

S finder not searching Gmail messages, it's so weird

Use Gmail with the stock email, and it just might..

Apple sued for the Universal search(Google search widget) present in Samsung's Gingerbread and ICS phones, not S Finder.

Stock mail is terrible app, all people use AquaMail and Gmail native app

The suggestion was in relation to Sfinder picking up on Gmail content & nothing more. Check Sfinder settings out..

which, i think is complete BS.....it's called indexing and a computer wouldn't even be modern if it cant search its own self

S Finder no longer searches Evernote

I loved S Finder for its ability to search all the phone's local data AND Evernote notes (amazing). For some reason, S Finder is no longer searching Evernote notes (and some other apps as well) despite the fact that those apps are checked in the S Finder settings. I thought this might have had to do with KitKat, but S Finder continued to work with EN long after the upgrade. :crying:

Yes, S finder saves me a lot of time too when searching for settings I want to find fast. I think it's one of the most powerful feature of the new tw.

Is quite useful when i looking for specific files or apps. I use google now for weather and map and use s finder for files.

eyecon82 · May 31, 2014

Yep. It's way better than the google search

Sure, I can. Google search can't search within your email and text messages like s-finder
