need to detect if the player is searching in the backpack search bar.

It seems to be impossible to detect if the player is typing in the backpack search bar.

why not just make your own? it would take someone 1 hour to remake it after all the GUI sucks compared to GUI remakes

This sounds like a potential feature request, maybe for GuiService.InventoryOpen?

But for the meantime, here’s a hacky module I made that tries to imitate how the inventory functions.

This is only accounts for computer, but I don’t think you can open inventory on mobile anyways. You’re on your own for Console.

InventoryService.rbxm (4.0 KB)

InventoryService = require(Module)

InventoryService.OpenChanged:Connect(function(Value)
	print(Value)
end)

print(InventoryService.IsOpen)
