The search displays an app called AICore with no icon as soon as you press the search bar. Also searching for "play store" as an app doesn't return any results. I'm aware there is a specific "search in the play store" button, but it's still an app and it should still find it. Gave 3 stars but changed to 4 as resolved the issue by refreshing apps in the settings. However still only 4/5 as I think I'll have to keep doing this.

Not perfect. Some suggestions: When opening, it takes about 2 seconds for the keyboard to open. Unnecessary delay. Furthermore, when searching, it should sort the apps by usage frequency. If I search for a string and always tap the second app in the result, it should learn and put that app in the first position so I can open it by pressing the enter.

Not only does it not support fuzzy search but also searching within a string, so you want to find "AppXYZ" while the app is named "My AppXYZ" you either type the thing exactly starting with "My" or it won't find it :( Also some of the fonts are to big/bold, different from font size used elsewhere in the system, which is a jarring UX There's certainly room for improvement
