Apple’s Mail app has been intensely buggy for years, and the bugs rarely get fixed.

(Search is comically bad.)

Search is so so bad. I just want to find an email with a word in it. All my Apple Devices fail at this.
Search is bad everywhere. If I open Settings, and then search for application $X, no results. If I search for $Y, $Y shows up. They are alphabetically next to each other, and I can see them both if I open the Applications submenu and scroll down to access individual app settings.

Why does one show up and one doesn’t? The one that doesn’t is a built-in Apple app, too. They both have identical settings for “show app in search”. This worked fine before iOS 26.
