No use I can think of - think of it as clutter or unused real estate?

I think we should add the functionality of searching the ZIM file on the home screen using find in page.

[Popolechien]

Well it already does that, doesn't it? (not multizim search, but search in the currently/last open one)
This being said, I realize your home screen looks a bit different from the one I currently have (and I like yours better)

• V2.4 build 1182160
• Huawei p20 Lite
• Android 8.0

@Popolechien The latest home screen is on the master branch while you are building from 2.4.

@siddharth2010 I'm unable to find Find in page on the home screen. Can you please double? If it's not present we can close this issue.

[siddharth2010]

Yeah, so if you click on the :mag: button on the action bar, you get the "find in page" option on the right.

I was searching for it in the overflow menu. 😕

I think we should simply remove that tool for that page.
