One feature that makes Miro slightly more useful than FigJam is the ability to search/find keywords. Sticky notes can be difficult to dig through if you are looking for something in particular.
Use case: I interview a set of participants. I have 100s of notes. A month later, I’m working on a feature and I remember that one of our users mentioned something that was relevant to my work. How do I got back and find what they said?
100% need “CMD + F” search function guys - it’s a no brainer and makes coming back to a packed board VERY hard to stomach when you know you wrote a note or label somewhere, but are unable to find it. 🤮
Would be amazing to have the basic Cmd+F feature to localize words on the whiteboard and being able to modify this word used in different places : all at once !
(or maybe make the existing Figma plug-in work with figjam ?)
Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
I cannot search within a Figma jam file, it would be very useful to be able to search text
Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)
Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
(e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc.
Yes I would also like to be able to search the figjam board
I’m using FigJam for research analysis for the first time. It has been great so far, but I totally agree that find/search is essential when working with large amounts of qualitative data. I use the Find and Replace plugin for normal Figma files, but this doesn’t work with FigJam.
I can’t use Figjam because of the absence of a search feature. I have to stick to Miro
Nothing new to add that hasn’t been said - we need this feature!!
You can’t even do standard browser text search.
My girlfriend and me are using FigJam as a way to structure our studies. I’m taking notes directly on it. When it’s time to search a subject in there it becomes really difficult though. Adding the shortcut to search a word (CTRL + F) would help a lot.
Thank you 🙂

ICYMI - there is now a plugin for this called “find and replace”!!
Works like a charm 🙂
When there are a bunch of text boxes in my figjam diagram, it would be nice to use “command + f” function to search a specific word in the diagram.
I am absolutely loving this tool! Wish there was a way to do full text search. Is that possible?
Thanks!
Please @anon21722796 let us know when the find/replace feature is implemented in Figma. It is currently too hard to look through a million stickies.
This would also be very helpful within normal figma design files as well! We have our marketing team do copy revisions in Figma until we have a CMS they can manage on their own and this would make it much easier to use.
+1 a text search would be very valuable when sorting through many sticky notes.
+1 please add this functionality. Need to find keyword for affinity mapping
+1 Need! It’s pain atm
Hi all! I made a plugin for this 👉 Search Stickies
I’d love to see it as a built-in feature but you can search the board with this plugin in the meantime. Would love to hear your feedback!
Would not even be trying figjam without this. Works great!
We need this! Core feature to enable complex boards to be more user-friendly.
I Agreee I often use ctrl - f to find and change multiple text at once. being a UI designer I often use a lot of text to simulate real contents. being able to change those text instantly would be amazing! please include this on figma design file and figjam THANK YOU!
Agreed, it is necessary to find words.
Any word on when a search feature will be added to figjam? we are using figjam for research, audits, note taking etc so this would be incredibly helpful… (and i agree with others mentioning that this feature was super useful in miro…)
Yes agree with everyone here, this is an essential feature, necessary with the jam files getting more intrinsic
