Better filter in search field
When searching for a password, the results should be categorized and bit more sererated from the login Item that has the keyword from tons of other results that have the word in the URL field as well. from example I have like 10 google accounts logins and each has the word google in the name followed by another identifying word. when I search for google why is the google logins not at the top separate but its mixed in with tons of other stuff I have that has the google in the notes section to the URL section.

I can't even search for both username and source. For example, I have used the same primary username for multiple services like Google, X. In Google, I have multiple accounts. I can either filter by service or find by username. It's okay with the 10-item list. But scrolling through 50 items on mobile is very frustrating

TLDR: Add search filtering, to search by username, vault name, creation date or other categories.

Mostly desktop user; To be honest, often times I find myself not using the 'vault' feature. I just dump everything in 1 vault and just rely on the search feature. For me, this happens as using the 'vault' feature currently isn't that 'keyboard friendly' as I do have to use the mouse to switch/select vaults.
Many modern search-based features allow for additional filters. For example, StackOverflow search bar has its own filtering it can apply such as putting stuff inside brackets to search for [tags]. GitHub has its own search syntax as well.
Can start with implementing a search syntax first, then add-on a more GUI friendly version for Mobile applications.

Some generic search filters would be by
- username contains
- has 2FA ?
- contains a website that matches a name
- has a note with a name
- has attachments
- created after/before
- etc, etc... -

My work email, say, my.name@myinstitution.ctry, is often my user name for many of the professional sites I use. But myinstitution.ctry is also the suffix of all the websites from .. my instituion that I have to connect to.
If I am doing things from within, say, Android, all is fine. But when I am in some linux or chromeos environments, I sometimes have to use the search. And in this case, I don't seem to be able to filter based on whether I want myinstitution.ctry to be in the user name or in the url of the site. So I get to parse through 250 or so results, some of which have www.something.xyz, others just something.xyz (I am saying that because alphabetical sorts the two in different places.).
Whether in the app or the website, it would be nice to have the option to say what field the chain is in... (I don't want to create one vault just to store one login.)

When I search for "GMAIL" it shows many entries/passwords because the email there are "...@gmail.com".
Please prioritize the entries where "GMAIL" is in the title and show them first.
(It's ok that you also show the rest where it is in the email or notes but please show the ones in the title first.
