I'm sure you're already done this, but searching on your exact request gives 2 URLs in Google.
The first is a link to your product unsurprisingly.
The second is a project from 2015 that claims to do what you might want.
I think a quick look at the second project might help to at least see if this guy went down the path you are plan to go.
Query:
http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=ios+full+text+indexing&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
First link to some Couchbase project:
https://github.com/Blue-Rocket/BRFullTextSearch
Project from second link that claims iOS Full Text Search
https://github.com/Blue-Rocket/BRFullTextSearch
Wish I had a more useful answer.

On Mac OS, there’s SearchKit, which does exactly what I want. iOS doesn’t have SearchKit for some reason, but it now has Core Spotlight, which lets me index data. The intended use seems to be for device-wide searching in the home screen’s search UI. Can I instead use it for my own queries?
