  "textContent": "Hi @entityvalkyrie\n\nYeah, I get why this is frustrating, especially if you’re using chats like a structured archive. Losing the ability to reliably find older ones breaks that flow pretty quickly.\n\nA couple things here:\n\n  * The behavior you’re describing around only seeing a limited set of recent chats in the sidebar is expected on mobile (it lazy-loads), but it definitely shouldn’t block you from finding older chats via search.\n  * The search issue you called out where chat titles aren’t being picked up unless the chat is already loaded doesn’t sound right. Same with chats jumping to the top just from being opened. Both of those feel like regressions rather than intended changes.\n\n\n\nI don’t have a confirmed fix to point to yet, but this is exactly the kind of thing we’d want to get in front of the team.\n\nIf you’re up for it, a couple details would really help narrow it down:\n\n  * App version (from iOS settings)\n  * iOS version\n  * Whether this happens consistently or only after certain actions (e.g. after searching, reopening the app, etc.)\n\n\n\nIn the meantime, one small workaround that might help: searching for a phrase you know exists in the chat body (not just the title), since content search still seems to be working more reliably right now.\n\nIf you can share those details, I can help make sure this gets properly flagged.\n\n~SD",
