Jan 28, 2016 9:18 AM in response to dfwatersby jason269,Hi, dfwaters.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand Safari unexpectedly closes when using the search function. I would recommend clearing your history and cookies from Safari. Once this is done test using the search function of Safari again.
Clear information from your device
To clear your history and cookies from Safari in iOS 8 or later, tap Settings > Safari > Clear History and Website Data. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Clear History and tap Clear Cookies and Data.
To clear other stored information from Safari, tap Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data > Remove All Website Data.
Clearing your history, cookies, and browsing data from Safari won't change your AutoFill information.
To visit sites without leaving a history, learn how to turn private browsing on or off.
Safari web settings on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Cheers

Jan 28, 2016 9:58 AM in response to dfwatersby Demo,★HelpfulAfter clearing Safari as suggested above, go to Settings>Safari>Safari Suggestions>Off. There is a glitch with Apple's servers that was causing this problem. You may have even had it cleared up where ever you are located by now. Safari works fine for me today.
