Not what you asked for, but ...

Did you know that you can access the files on your Android device from your regular Everything?

There is no official Android version of Everything by voidtools yet.

An Android version of Everything is on my TODO list.

All of the above seems to be about searching your windows computer from an android device. I'm interested in the opposite - Everything scanning/searching the contents of my Android device, I can't find any way to do it. Suggestions?

Just found Fossify File Manager. Search results are instant in Recents and Storage tab. For some reason, it's very slow in Files tab.

Good thing is that it's open-source so any dev can contribute on github.

I would appreciate if someone would make it ignore accents and diacritics plus adjacent words.
