Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Projects tab on Android or iOS with a workspace name containing the search term. Locate the Projects tab search entry point and inspect how workspace and project names are matched. Done means the search filters by project name only, with matching behavior verified on both mobile platforms.

Description

android 🤖 bug iOS 🍎

Description

When searching for projects in the Projects tab, the search also matches against the workspace name. If the workspace name contains the search string, all projects in that workspace are returned regardless of whether their names match, making the search results misleading and unhelpful.

Environment
[ ] Staging [x] PROD

Application (+ app version, build, operating system)

  • Mergin Maps mobile 2026.2.0, Android
  • Mergin Maps mobile 2026.2.0, iOS

Steps to reproduce

  1. Navigate to workspace tester-ws-1 in the Projects tab
  2. Type Test in the search field
  3. Observe the results

Actual results

All projects in workspace tester-ws-1 are returned — the search matches the workspace name (tester-ws-1 contains test) instead of filtering by project name only.

Expected results

Only projects whose names contain the search string Test should be returned. Searching the workspace name on the Projects page does not make sense from a user perspective.
