Hi there! I understand that when you use the search function in the Flipp app on your iPhone, you're seeing only a limited number of flyer results and still have to scroll through all flyers to find more. Is that right?

To narrow down the cause and help you better, may I ask a couple of quick questions?
- Are you searching for specific items or stores in the app's search bar?
- When you say limited results, do you mean that the search returns just a few flyers, or the results don’t match what you expect?
- Have you noticed this issue recently, or has it been ongoing for a while?

In the meantime, here are some initial steps you can try to improve search results in Flipp on iOS 18.6.2:

1. Update the Flipp app
Make sure you have the latest version of Flipp installed from the App Store, as updates often fix bugs and improve search functionality.

2. Clear Cache and Restart the App
- Close the Flipp app completely (swipe it away from your iPhone’s app switcher).
- Restart the app and try searching again.

3. Location Settings
- Flipp customizes flyer results based on your location.
- Check that location permissions are enabled for Flipp (Settings > Flipp > Location > While Using the App).
- You can also manually select your preferred location or stores inside the app’s settings or flyers tab to get more relevant flyers.

4. Use Search Tips
- Try using broader keywords for searches to get more comprehensive results initially.
- You can also browse flyers by categories or favorite stores to avoid sifting through all flyers manually.

If you’ve already tried these or the issue continues, the problem might be due to limited data supply from certain retailers or a temporary app glitch. Flipp aggregates digital flyers provided by retailers, so sometimes search can be limited by what’s currently available digitally in your region23.

Let me know what you’ve tried and any extra details you can share, and I’ll guide you through any further steps or help escalate the issue if needed! Are you satisfied with this initial guidance so far?
