P: Geotagging with special characters

When searching in the filter bar, if a location is geotagged with a special character (ex,Galápagos instead of Galapagos), it doesn’t show up in the search results.  Could you include an option to ignore or disregard special characters?  If Spanish is not my native language in this case, it’s hard for me to know how to include these characters and modifying to accommodate searching for these words is very time consuming.

    Hi @sazer01, Unfortunately, the current system does not support ignoring special characters directly. To see the results you are looking for, using Spanish spelling with special characters is crucial for accurate results. If you would like this to be a feature, and you believe others may also benefit from this, please encourage them to upvote or share their thoughts in the comments in our ideas section. Thank! ^CH
