Search is broken

Best part about Gmail on the web is the search function - it’s what Google is known for, after all. I am traveling and only have my phone. I was looking for a specific email and could not find it. I just looked at it the other day so I KNOW it’s somewhere in my gmail. After searching for over 30 minutes, I finally called my fiancé and asked her to log in to my email on a computer and search. It was in the trash. The app’s search function apparently will not show you emails that are in your trash, even if you have your trash open when you try to search. Epic fail and a huge waste of my time.
