Android Full Text Search

Does Android come with a way to do Full Text Search?

I know is it not even possible to search contacts by the notes field, being Google the search company, but I would be disappointed if there is no API for that.

Firebase Firestore Database

Google's Firebase Firestore outlines a full-text search solution using a 3rd party service, Algolia. Other 3rd party services can be used like Elastic Search.
