Mobile App: Payee filtering fails with apostrophes (iOS)
Clara from Lunch Money
When filtering transactions on the mobile app (iOS) on the Transactions tab, searches containing an apostrophe may return no results even when matching transactions exist.
For example, searching for the payee "McDonald's" returns no results, while searching for "McDonald" or "McDonalds" returns all of the expected transactions, which display the payee as "McDonald's".
This appears to be related to the apostrophe character used by iOS. iOS may enter a curly apostrophe (’, U+2019), while the stored payee uses a straight apostrophe (', U+0027). Although they appear nearly identical, they are interpreted as different characters, which prevents the filter from matching.
