![rewards](https://spee.ch/9/rewards-tutorial01.png)
_On the left, navigating to Rewards in LBRY Desktop and lbry.tv. On the right, navigating to Rewards on LBRY Android._
You can find the rewards section under the Account menu > Rewards. On Android, click or slide out the menu, and then select Rewards. [Click here to navigate directly to your app](https://open.lbry.com/?rewards).
In addition to the one time rewards, we have a daily reward for watching content you love on LBRY - so make sure to check back often to keep earning!
LBC rewards can be used to buy content on the LBRY network, to support your favorite creators, or to publish yourself. Tipping creators also helps creators become discovered on LBRY by boosting their relevance in results.

You may need to complete account verification to participate in the rewards program. See our [Rewards](https://lbry.com/faq/rewards) for more information and details about what rewards are available.

Publishing to LBRY allows anyone else in the world to access your content. You can publish any type of digital file to LBRY.

title: Searching for Content
category: tutorial
order: 2
---
Searching for content on the LBRY Desktop and Android apps is easy. We'll start with lbry.tv and Desktop first, then cover [Android below](#android).
### Searching on Desktop and lbry.tv
Click your cursor into the top bar, and enter a search term. Typically, you'll see at least 3 items at the top:
1. **Search** - Default if enter is clicked. This is your typical search option, will return all results matching it.
2. **Exact URL** - Select this to navigate directly to the content published at `lbry://comics`
3. **Tag** - Select this to navigate to the tag page to browse all content tagged `comics`
![desktop-search](https://spee.ch/a/search-term.png)
After performing a search, you'll have access to additional filter to help narrow down the results.
- Filtering to _files_ will return content published according to the selected file types.
- Filtering to _channels_ will return only channel results.
![filters](https://spee.ch/c/search-filters.png)
### Searching on Android {#android}
Select the top bar and begin typing. Once you pause or click enter, the search results will appear. Currently there are no filtering options on this platform.
