Then go to the Spotlight Search and type 'Blue', two search items in the demo app will appear and tapping on one of them takes to the app. A label in the center will indicate which item has been selected.




How to add Spotlight Search

• import CoreSpotlight
• Create a CSSearchableItem for any entry item you want to have in Spotlight. (Specifying title, thumbnail, description, id, domain....)
• index items by invoke CSSearchableIndex.default().indexSearchableItems

Now you will be able to see the search items in spotlight.

Note: The already indexed items will not be deleted unless the app is uninstalled. If you want to remove old search items, explicitly invoke func deleteSearchableItems(withDomainIdentifiers domainIdentifiers: [String], completionHandler: ((Error?) -> Void)? = nil)


How to handle tapping event of each items

• override AppDelegate function as below

• override restoreUserActivityState in the rootViewController
