What about 1:1 chat?

I'm using Element X and there seems to be no search button for messages at all.

So I cannot even search for "shopping" to find the shopping list, or "address" to find the address a friend sent me some days ago.

It is simple to see why the normal user will have a bad everyday experience.

The app uses 160 MB user data on my phone which fits a lot of text, why cannot I just search it?

1:1 would be encrypted by default

The question is why I cannot search through it when it is a trivial amount of data that is on my device already.
