Will non-members be able to search and see the details of a board which is set to Globally visible ?

Question

I am trying to use Trello for my school Alumni.

I want some users, non-members, to use trello and watch the activities. But they should not be able to edit or delete the cards etc.

So when such non-members login to trello, can they search for the particular board using the board name ?

Regards,

Sibin.

Thanks for the response Iain.. could you please be more specific.. if u check my query it’s more about how it can be searched via web browser and mobile app ?

@sibin tk public boards are indexed by google, so they're REALLY REALLY public

Thanks Jodi..

1) unless the direct link is provided non-members cannot search the particular board even if it’s kept as public, right ?

2) the link is for accessing trello via web browsers. How about trello mobile app.. such a non member.. can he install trello and search for the public board ? I believe the user will need to create a trello account and login to app first.. any option to search the board post that ?
