Search

Most of the time you don’t need to think about how to search — type what you remember and Moonjar finds it. If you want more control, you can pick a specific mode.

Before you start

• Moonjar app installed and signed in.
• At least one document captured.

Steps

1. Open Moonjar.
2. Tap the search icon at the top of the Documents tab, or open the command palette (More → Command palette).
3. Type what you remember — keywords, a vendor name, a date.
4. Tap a result to open the document.

Filters

You can narrow a search by:

• Document type — limit to receipts, travel documents, etc.
• Year and month — when the document was dated, not when you captured it.

Modes

Moonjar runs in auto mode by default. If you want to override:

• Full-text — exact words in the source. Best for unique strings like booking codes or names.
• Semantic — meaning-based, using embeddings. Best for vague recall, like “that thing about retirement plans”.
• Structured — searches inside extracted fields like vendor or total. Best for “all my Vodafone bills”.
