Description
the function to search the contents of a layer is very powerful and flexible in mergin maps on a field device but once you select a record in the filtered list, you are immediately taken to the feature location if it is a spatially-enabled layer.
if you chose the wrong record then you have to select layers again, re-enter search terms and try again
it would be more functional, if the feature form would open first so that one could read through the details, see photo etc. then choose to zoom to the location if desired by clicking a zoom/pan to button on the bottom of the form
if it wasn't the correct record the user was looking for they could back out of the form and choose the next one or change their search terms.

Research direction
The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the search-result selection flow in the mobile app and compare its current navigation with the requested form-first behavior; done means selecting a result opens its form, with an explicit way to zoom to the feature and return to other results.
