Flow patterns

Opening a search result

Move from query results to an item detail.

  1. BookMyShow: Search the catalog for a title

    Text search as the cross-vertical way into content: the Home header magnifier opens a Search Entry screen (recent searches plus a city-scoped Trending Now list and an Explore All Categories link), a typed query returns as-you-type results grouped across films, streaming titles, events, plays, venues and people, View All Results expands the same surface in place from 8 to 50 results, and a ten-tab result-type strip partitions them by type. Opening a result lands on a genuine ungated destination: a film synopsis page with a Book tickets CTA, or - for a Venues result - the venue's own page with address, a maps link and its own event inventory. The Search Entry shortcuts are deep links rather than query re-runs: a stored Recent Searches row and a Trending Now row each open a film detail page directly. One approved en-IN Bengaluru variant is published to the film detail page; the venue-result and shortcut scenarios are captured as supporting evidence. Artist and person results, clearing recent searches, and searching from inside the Live Events vertical are not yet captured. Kept searchable as a utility rather than shown as a headline journey.

  2. SNITCH: Open a product from search results

    The reusable SNITCH query-to-product step: starting from an on-query results listing, choose the grid density that exposes product names and prices, pick one result tile, and land on that product's full detail page with imagery, name, price, rating summary and a live ADD TO BAG. The captured variant enters search from a curated collection's header magnifier, follows a 'polo shirts' typeahead suggestion to a catalog-wide listing, and stops without committing.
