Abstract
A device implementing a system for limiting the scope of a search includes a processor configured to, receive, by a first application, first user input including at least a portion of a first search term, and to determine that a second application corresponds to the first search term. The processor is further configured to display a graphical element for activating a search filter that limits search results to content of the second application, and to receive second user input including selection of the graphical element. The processor is further configured to send, to the second application, a search request including at least one of the first search term or a second search term, to receive, from the second application, a completion suggestion or search result based on a search performed on the content of the second application, and to provide the completion suggestion or search result.
