Hi @Peng.Ruilin,

This behavior in Spotlight is handled via the Core Spotlight framework:

On iOS, add the key kMDItemKeywords to your app's Info.plist. Its value should be a String, and include a comma-separated list of keywords.
For macOS, add the key MDItemKeywords to your app's Info.plist in a similar way.

This should enable Spotlight to be able to use those keywords to return your app in the Spotlight results.

Note: If the project uses sting catalogs for its Info.plist files, consider creating localized versions of this keyword list for each locale your app(s) supports on each platform.
