Ctrl-F should focus on the search field, like Skype.

Enhance search capability - simple syntax like in outlook search (e.g. from: holmes) and saved search capability (e.g. all posts from CSE LT members in the last week)

Guest users are unable to search files in Teams. They get the "Messages" and "People" however "Files" is not present. They are able to search SharePoint no issues, just not teams.

Ideally there'd be a way to search / find / filter directly in conversation pane. The search on the upper left of chat just shows me conversations where it appears but I want to navigate and highlight each occurrence of a search string within a conversation thread - particularly long ones with long comments where my name is mentioned.

When user clicks "Join or create a team", public teams are listed.
Currently, these teams are not of all public teams. Only teams that are related to me or other members are shown.

Please add options "All public teams" are shown.

In the Planner is impossible search.
How can I find any text, ...

From MS Team home page could have a list to all Skype contacts, that way, getting rid from Skype :)

The overall search box does not allow you to search within a individual team only.

Integrate Teams chat into Outlook email search so that Outlook email search results include relevant Teams chats (like how relevant Skype chats are included in a search done in Outlook email).

currently the "Go to the chat" link when you're viewing a Search Result takes you to the end of the chat.
It should bring you to the right date and time, so that you can see the search result in the context of the conversation.

Option to delete search history

Currently in Skype you can search for individuals by location from AD, then you can select a user based a search results. Very helpful to find individuals at a specific location and/or department -- would like to see this feature enabled in Teams. Currently you have to know exactly who you are trying to IM in advance.

If I remember an previous conversation but didn't tag it. I'd like to be able to go to the conversations tab and search for it.

A small, but very useful improvement would be: To be able to sort the Members of a Team under "Manage team" menu, by Status, Name, Title, Location, Role, etc.

Chat Search results to include Conversation Subject

It would be very useful if the search results would include / display the conversation subject. currently search only shows the content.

Please enable global search to look inside webhooked post cards

Searching chat history, possibility to jump to selected/filtered result.
The search today is not very useful, i.e. if not all information is in the same post as the searched phrase. Most ofthen you rember talking about something, but also need to read the related chat posts, i.e. not only the post with the exact search phrase.

Add possibility to jump to a post in search result and see the chat post in chat thread context.

When I finally find the message that contains a phrase that I was searching, I would like to see it in a wider context. By clicking 'go to chat' I understand 'go to chat, where the phrase was found'. Now 'go to chat' leads me to the last message from the chat.

The search functionality is slow compared to the same function in Slack. It would be very helpful to decrease the time associated with searching within the search bar.

Enable search to search below team names into channels and actual chats!
