[Describe Your Feature] Allow for searching without diacritics match (e.g., “camera” = “câmera”)

Open cuesta4 opened this issue 2 months ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Windows Start Menu search uses a diacritics agnostic approach to searches. For example, "câmera" and "camera" are both acceptable in portuguese, and the Windows Start menu will show the same results for both, while Flow Launcher does not. This is a common approach for ease of use, as adding accents requires more buttons presses, and I imagine it to be common in other languages.

Describe the solution you'd like Allow us to toggle diacritics matching in searches, just as the Everything app allows for. That way, a query for "camera" should also include apps named "câmera" or "cámara", if that's what the user wants.
