I have noticed that core spotlight description get truncated even if description character length is under 150.

Apple says : As with titles, long descriptions can also get truncated, so it’s best to limit your description to 300 characters.

I was wondering Why the core spotlight description get truncated even though the character length is less than 150 as Apple recommended to have limit 300.

Appreciate your help.

    Wild guess (haven't played with CoreSpotlight yet), could it be related to the device and the space it provides (screen size, zoom is on/off)? – Larme Jan 19 '16 at 16:51

If I remember correctly, you can manually insert a newline in the title string, and it will use 2 lines, but will not autowrap to the next line without it.

How much truncation will happen depends on various factors, including but not limited to:

  • the avatar size
  • the title length
  • whether its a top hit result or a normal suggestion

Also new line \n doesn't work in Content description. I suggest you can separate different values using | sign. Core light Search result UI is very limited in terms of how much you can customise.
