I am unable to search my emails in the Mail app on my iPhone

For the last year or so, I have not been able to search my emails and find anything. Whether it be a keyword, the actual email address, the sender’s name, I cannot pull up emails and it always tells me the phone needs to be locked charged and on Wi-Fi.


This is an ongoing issue because I can see many other people are having it. Please get this fixed because I need to find important emails and I had them flagged even and they don’t even show up in my flagged now when I search.

Perhaps your inquiry needs an update; to tell those who

just now see it moved up in sequence, as it's re-named?


Maybe back then, your device might have needed an iOS

update in order to function. And by this time, could've had

one; or even a later one? ~Subsequent comments could be

sent to 'Apple Feedback' site/topic for direct pose to Apple.


..Most anything related to 'Apple Feedback' may be submitted

under a variety of topics; if uniquely different, more than once.


"Use the form below to send us your comments. We read all feedback

carefully, but we are unable to respond to each submission individually.

-If you provide your email address, you agree that we may contact you

to better understand the comments you submitted."

More named 'software' & 'hardware' topics are available to address

separately; if inquiries are uniquely different, submit new ones too.
