Hi,

just a little funny issue with the search in the geteduroam app
(Android 14) - when searching for:

"Universität Augsburg" (with the german umlaut 'ä')

No result shows up - even if that is the exact name. 

When searching only "Augsburg", the corret result "Universität
Augsburg" shows up in the list (with the 'ä'). 

Searching only for "Universität" also brings up a excessive list of
results. 

So the combination of Non-ASCII + Space seems to confuse the search...

As there is another University with "Augsburg" in the name (in the US -
not using CAT for now as it seems) - as well as two other listet
institutions in town - an exact search could be helpfull sometimes.

Now its just a matter of where the issue actually originates - in
geteduroam or in the CAT API...

Greetings, Lukas
