👋; gist is that I’d like to be able to search by keyword when looking for workouts, e.g. “racewinners” – there are certain attributes I can’t easily search by otherwise, but indexing that content and affording keyword search would be a nice incremental improvement to that aspect of TR’s functionality. ---

Which app version (PC, Mac, mobile, or web)? AFAIK, you can already search in all of those. It varies on each one a bit, but go into the Workouts section in any of them and you should see a “search” box. There are also filters that allow additional refinement. Give me your specific situation, and I will try to find screen shots if the text above doesn’t help. ---

This works in browser (Mac, Chrome). Checked just now and also used it this week for over-unders. ---

The filter is the blue box with the white funnel in the top section of your 1st screen shot. Click that and you will have lots of options in there. I tried searching like you on Android mobile with no luck. But the web search does work. So it looks like the mobile search is not as comprehensive. I am hoping they are addressing this in the total workout search, tag, sort reboot. They are rebuilding it to be identical between all platforms. ---

Yeah, there are some categories, but ‘racewinners’ if that’s informally thought of by Chad & Co. as a category isn’t listed there, at least in the context I described. Sounds good re: work to make search consistent across platforms. That’s one case where I’m not really likely to go searching for feature variability across the different ways I use TR services.
