# Use Search in Quip

Find specific documents, spreadsheets, chats, or folders.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small edition"><colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available in: <strong>Quip desktop app</strong>, <strong>Quip iOS mobile app</strong>, and <strong>Quip on web</strong></td></tr></tbody></table>

To search, use the Search tab in the sidebar. Quip returns results as you type.

- You can search by the item’s title or content.
- Search results include all files, folders, and chats that you have access to.

To find files more easily, narrow your search results with filters.
