**Team ID:**

- In the Glide dashoard URL, e.g.  
WVXEKRdhln44Yzajq3x0

**App ID:**

- In the Glide builder URL, e.g.  
FLCNFckbN0ABaaVz27Ar

**Description**

- The search bar doesn’t return any results in the app (iOS, Android, MacOS or Windows) but works in the builder. I think it’s coming from the Tabs component.

**How to replicate**

- In “Transport”, choose either “Tableau principal” or a calendar and search for “Hya” or “hya”. There should be results in november (2 right now but it can change).

It turns out other collections—unrelated to tabs—aren’t working either, so the problem is more serious than I thought. My client needs this to work.

I am experiencing the same issue. A search in the live app is not returning the right result, but in the app builder it is.
