Might be related to #33 if encryption blocks database processing someway?

No, that is unrelated.

All three lists (Chats, contacts, current chat messages) are filtered at the same time. Yes, the current chat should always stay in the "Chats" list, never noticed that

Hi @abika I notice that if search somethings, the contacts list is blank while in the chat history you show the result searched. But if search a sent message, is not showing the receiver because in the message popup you don't show the receiver (correct, search my message that I have sent and you don't write in the message popup the sender): search send

While, if I search a text that I received, in the message popup you show the sender so the search showing the sender : search receive

Another problem is if I search a text with a capital letter. In this example I searched the same previous word, but now with the first letter as capital, and the search is empty: search empty

And seems that the search not is for all contact but only for the contact selected. If I sent "hello" to 3 contacts, and after search the text "hello", I found the text only for the contact selected.

search in messages is only done for the currently selected chat - searching in all chats simultaneously is not supported (and hard to implement).

Please open another issue if you really need that.
