## What is Advanced Search Smart Options?

This app allows you to perform advanced web searches with just inputting keywords.

Web searches can be conducted using search operators, enabling various search options. However, using search operators often requires combining alphabets and symbols with spaces, which can become cumbersome.

For instance,
When you want to search for "Apple Inc." articles within Wikipedia's page content, you would need to input the following:
allintext: apple -fruit site:wikipedia.org

The app automatically generates such commands, enabling you to perform advanced searches by just inputting keywords. The search engine used is Google.

Available Search Criteria
・AND search, including all keywords
・Exact match search for keywords
・OR search, including any of the keywords
・Exclusion search, excluding certain keywords from results
・Numerical ranges (e.g., from $1,000 to $5,000, from 3kg to 10kg)
・Range of update dates
・Language
・Region
・Specific sites or domains
・Related sites
・File formats (pdf, doc, xls, ppt, etc.)
・Search scope (page title only, page content only, page URL only, etc.)
