Feature Request: Better Search with OCR-image indexing
-
A modern search experience would help a lot in making our loved memories that are stored in Day One so much more accessible.
A wishlist
- Have a nice results view a better preview (use the space available on larger devices to show more context, media previews, better UX to further narrow your search with filters). The search UI feels very dated by today’s standards.
- A shortcut (CMD+K) to trigger spotlight-like command bar from everywhere within the app
- Image indexing:
- OCR is performed for all attached images to detect potential text
- Use AI image recognition to index traits like objects and color (e.g. Search for “beach” brings up an entry with a photo of a beach, without the word being written)
-
You’ve made some fantastic requests! While we don’t offer those features right now, I’ll gladly pass your suggestions on to our team for consideration.
We always appreciate any additional ideas you might have. Thank you!
