Rocket.chat.reactnative: Real Name search doesn't work in Add Users form

[ankar84]

• Your Rocket.Chat Experimental app version: 4.7.0.17188
• Your Rocket.Chat server version: 3.1.1
• Device (or Simulator) you're running with: Xiaomi Mi 9 SE

Search for users works perfectly in Directory Search. It does search by username and which is really much important for me and my users it does search by Real Name (which in my deployment almost always Cyrillic and not English names)
Here is example of Cyrillic search in mobile application on open.rocket.chat

And here is an example of how Cyrillic search doesn't work in Add Users form (when private chat owner need to add users to his chat)

So, please, fix that search form and search in mobile application will be consistent and convenient for users.

@diegolmello hi! Can you take a look at that issue?

Please work on that issue if you can. There is no ready pr for that.

@ankar84 I created the following user:

real name: d098
username: diego.mello1409

and searched by real name

The issue is just the duplicated username?
Or is there something else?

[ankar84]

The issue is just the duplicated username?

No.
Issue is about search users with non English real name (Cyrillic as example) in add users and magnifying glass tool.
Directory search works fine on Cyrillic Real Name (first screen) but when you try to add user to some channel by Cyrillic Real Name - search results are not correct. And magnifying glass too search by Cyrillic Real Name not correct.

Can you create a reproducible example on open server?

[ankar84]

Can you create a reproducible example on open server?

Yes. All screens from open.rocket.chat
Try to find Антон in Directory search and with magnifying glass tool.
Directory search

Magnifying glass tool

Web version works perfect for both search.

@diegolmello I just tested that fix in 4.11.0.20568 and it much better than before, but still small amount of search results
Here is same search for Антон with Magnifying glass tool

Compare with Directory search

Though it looks like web version

And if users in result would be appears with their Real Names, but not only username, it would be better.
