Searchable Handwriting?

Hi all. I used to use OneNote for iPad in college (around 2020) and all of my handwritten notes were searchable. Recently, I have been using OneNote at work and just got an iPad, and for some reason my handwritten notes are not searchable. Not looking to use the ink to text feature.

Here are some of the steps I’ve taken already: -I have highlighted my handwriting and selected treat as handwriting -automatic handwriting recognition is enabled

Any help would be much appreciated!
