We have some saved searches that we’ve used an icon of a lock in the search name to indicate that these shouldn’t be messed with (even by admins) unless you know what you are doing. For example the search might be called “🔒 Super Important Customer Search”. Since 2025.2 these names are now showing as “������ Super Important Customer Search” instead. I can edit them and change it back to the right icon, but if I do so, I can no longer find the search using the Global Search bar. Has anyone else encountered this issue or has a suggestion for a workaround?

It seems to work and allow global searching for me if I copy the windows/outlook lock emoji directly into the search title. Is it possible you're copying and pasting the emjoi from somewhere else, or that it's not related to the emoji at all and there's actually an issue with the audience or something?

correct, I’m searching for the text part not the lock icon

Yeah, I guess it could be a OS and/or browser issue, although it not showing in global search doesn't feel very typical of those kinds of issues.
