Hi! I understand you're seeing an error message saying "something went wrong" when you search for "watermelon" in the Boycat app, and this has been persistent for a while. Let's work through this together to get it sorted out.

First, just to clarify:
- Are you only seeing this error when searching for "watermelon," or does it happen with other search terms as well?
- Have you tried closing and reopening the app or restarting your iPhone?
- Are you connected to a stable internet connection, either Wi-Fi or cellular data?

Meanwhile, you can try these steps which often resolve such search errors:

1. Restart the Boycat App
- Double-click the home button or swipe up (depending on your iPhone model) to see the app switcher.
- Swipe the Boycat app off the screen to close it fully.
- Reopen the app and try the search again.

2. Check for App Updates
- Open the App Store.
- Tap on your profile icon at the top right.
- Scroll down to see if Boycat has an update available. If so, update it and try searching again.

3. Verify Internet Connection
- Make sure you have a robust Wi-Fi or cellular connection.
- You might switch between Wi-Fi and cellular to see if the problem persists.

4. Clear App Cache (if available)
- iOS apps don’t usually have a built-in cache clearing option, but you can try deleting and reinstalling the Boycat app.
- To do this, touch and hold the Boycat app icon, then choose "Remove App" > "Delete App."
- Reinstall it from the App Store.

If after these steps, the problem continues only with the term "watermelon," it might be a backend issue or a data-related bug with that specific search term in Boycat's database.

Let me quickly check if there are known issues around this... From recent discussions, some users have reported intermittent scanning and search issues with Boycat, but no specific widespread problem about "watermelon" searches1.

If the issue remains unresolved, please let me know, and I can help escalate the problem to Boycat's development team or check server-side status.

Are you okay with trying these steps and letting me know how it goes?
