Once you have hundreds of birds in the list, scrolling stops being an option. ThatPigeon gives you two tools: search (free text) and filters (precise criteria). You can use both at once.
Search
The search bar at the top of the list takes any fragment:
- Partial ring — type "347914" and it finds
RO 2024 347914. Spaces and capitals do not matter. - Name — "Blue" finds every bird with "blue" in its name, with or without diacritics.
- Breeder — searches the breeder recorded on the bird's page.
Results update as you type. The Clear search (×) button in the bar wipes the text and brings the whole list back.
Filters
Press the Filters button (to the right of the search bar) to open the filter panel. There are five categories:
| Filter | What you pick |
|---|---|
| Sex | Cock, Hen, Undetermined |
| Status | Active, Sold, Lost, Deceased, Retired |
| Role | Breeder, Flyer and so on — appears only if you have birds with a role set |
| Loft | Each loft, plus Unassigned — appears only if you have at least two lofts |
| Photo | With photo, Without photo, Any |
Every option is a chip you tap to turn on or off. You can combine chips from different categories — "Hen + Active + With photo", for instance.
The quick status chips
Above the list is a row of horizontal chips for the statuses (All, Active, Sold, Lost and so on). They work as a quick filter without opening the full panel — tap a chip and the list narrows instantly.
How you know filters are on
The Filters button carries a badge with the number of active categories. If you cannot see the birds you are looking for, check the badge.
Clearing filters
- From the filter panel: press Clear all at the bottom.
- From an empty list: when a filter returns nothing, a Clear filters button appears on the screen itself.
- Search clears separately, with Clear search (×) in the bar.
A tip
Search and filter together. Filter on the loft "Loft 2", then search "2024" to see only the 2024 birds in that one place.
