I'm working on tracks search and I found that in-app search performs spellchecking of query. For example for query 'seaman rammstein' result will be 1 song Seemann by Rammstein, but search via API(https://api.spotify.com/v1/search) has no items. And I wonder what method or params are used in application search? Thank you for your help in advance!

you're correct that the Search API doesn't do what we call "fuzzy matching". There is an open issue on the Web API issue tracker that you can follow here.

Thank you for your answer. Do you use third-party software for fuzzy matching or this is your inner feature? – hjortron Jan 09 '18 at 11:03
