The “Apps” app is so bad on macOS too (seems built off of Spotlight?). I’ll type the exact app name and it’ll suggest the one on my phone, an installer in Downloads, etc..

I open Finder, click on Applications, search "Google Chrome". Top results? MarketingAnalytics.yaml, aria-proptypes.md, and so on, from some project I cloned off of Github into my home directory at some point. I guess the file contents include "Google Chrome"?
Clearly insane, but under the "Advanced" finder settings, it's easy to find "Search the Current Folder". Suddenly, you get the result you'd expect.
Huh? You absolutely can, the post you're replying to says as much.
defaults write com.apple.finder FXDefaultSearchScope SCcfIf I type "sa" the first result is Safari but if I type "safa" I get "Adguard for Safari.app".
In what world does this make sense?
