Search - How to find everything fast on your iPhone




Need a phone number in a hurry? You can always click the address book, tap contacts and then type the name of the person your looking for, Or on the main Home screen, flick your finger to the right, then type what you’re looking for in the search field. Search looks through everything on your iPhone — app names, contacts, calendars, songs, email and text messages, notes, and more. From there, a single tap takes you where you want to go. Want to hear a song right now? With Search, everything on your iPhone is just a few taps away. 

Search the web.

You can search beyond iPhone to find what you need on the web and Wikipedia. On the Search screen, just type what you’re looking for and choose where you want to search. Safari automatically opens with a list of search results. 

Search the server.

In Mail, you can search through all your downloaded messages by sender, recipient, or subject. But if the information you’re looking for isn’t stored on your iPhone, you can continue your search on the server.* Search responds with all the results. In the Contacts app, you can also search for people in your corporate directory if you use Microsoft Exchange or LDAP.

Search inside applications.

Searching on iPhone works in other apps too. Search text and names in MMS messages. Search names in Contacts. Search calendar events by subject, location, attendees, or notes. Search all text in Notes. Search for albums, artists, or songs in the iPod app.
