# Search

The **Search drawer** in the header lets visitors search your collections, products, and pages.

{% hint style="success" %}
You can customize search results with Shopify's [Search & Discovery app](https://apps.shopify.com/search-and-discovery). Create custom filters, select result types, and add "synonym groups" to show relevant results. See Shopify's [App guide](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/search-and-discovery) to learn more.
