Searching for pages or content containing accents and diacritics is now more intuitive and reliable across all Notion platforms.

Previously, searching for a word like “café” or “naïve” could be hit-or-miss if you didn’t include the exact special character. With this update, Notion’s in-page find and global search now recognise the relationship between accented and unaccented characters. This means searching for “cafe” will correctly surface “café”, making the tool much more accessible for multilingual workspaces and international teams who regularly work with diverse character sets.

This functionality is enabled by default for all users, so you can immediately begin searching for accented terms using Cmd/Ctrl + P or the in-page search.
