App with deep search functionality?
Hi all,
I have an iPad which I currently use for reading PDFs or picture-heavy ePubs. One example of this is cookbooks; I have acquired dozens of cookbooks throughout the years, and I like using the iPad in the kitchen to display the recipe I'm currently cooking.
One functionality I'm missing however is deep search throughout all the books in the library; for instance, suppose I have an ingredient in the fridge I'd like to use, I would like to be able to search across all my cookbooks for mentions of this ingredient, ideally with some context (e.g. chapter name or a snippet of text surrounding the word).
So far all the applications I've tried (Kindle, Apple Books, Documents) will either search the library for book titles, or when inside a book, will search within the current book. I haven't found an app which will scan the contents of all the books within the library.
Are you guys aware of such an app? Ideally with support for both PDFs and ePubs?
I also recently ordered an Onyx Boox device, so Android apps are of interest to me as well.
Thanks!
