Hi there nynay,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. We understand when you tap the search field in the App Library the keyboard does not appear to type in your search, and we'd be happy to help!


To get started, does restarting seem to help with the issue, even if it's just temporary? Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


If the issue persists after restarting, are you currently using the most up-to-date iOS version on your iPhone? If not, let's also update your iPhone with the steps listed here, and let us know if that helps: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Let us know how that goes, and we'll continue from there.


Take care!
