Searching

Blabble offers three search modes to help you find exactly what you're looking for across all connected sources.

Search modes

⌘F

Search conversations & messages

Filters the conversation list by title or participant name, and simultaneously searches message content. The most common search. Type a name or keyword to see matching conversations and messages together.

⌘⇧F

Search messages only

Searches only within message content across all conversations. Use this when you remember what was said but not who said it.

⌘⌥F

Filters conversations by contact name, email, or phone number. Useful for quickly finding a specific person's conversations.
