How to implement fuzzy search with SQLite's FTS3?
SQLite's FTS allows searches only for entire words, or for word prefixes.
There is no built-in functionality for fuzzy searches like this.(And the Android database API does not allow you to add custom virtual table implementations.)
I went with relaxing my criteria to search all word beginnings:
private static String fixQuery(String query) { return query.trim().replaceAll("\\s+", "*") + "*";}it works pretty well. Not typo-resistant, but it feels natural when I'm using it.
