The top featured app does not appear in the result

appId: tej.wifithiefdetector is featured in Position 1 in the Philippines but it is excluded in the result For example, https://play.google.com/store/search?q=WiFi%20thief%20detector&c=apps&hl=en&gl=PH

search(
            query='WiFi Thief Detector',
            lang="en",
            country='PH',
            n_hits=30
        )

It works well on my machine and library version 1.2.2. If the same problem occurs after updating the library, please reopen issue.

same issue. if we search for "facebook lite" or "Instagram lite", the result doesn't show the match.

Same problem here. Missing the most similar match when using the exact query, for example, search("pokemongo") won't return "Pokémon GO", but search("best Pikachu game") will. Guess it's due to the search page difference? image
