Calendar Search not working on iPhone

The search function in the calendar app no longer works. No matter what I search I get “no events”. Does anyone know how to get this back? The events are still in the calendar, they just aren’t found using the search option.

Thank you SOOO MUCH! I’ve been working on this for days and was going to return my new phone! I didn’t realize that my calendar is not an iCloud calendar, it’s Gmail and this was the answer! I’ve tried everything that everyone else said and yours hit the jackpot! I cannot thank you enough! This was your fix:


Settings>Mail>Account (select the correct account)>Calendar


then toggle OFF calendar. It asks if you want to delete the account and you accept. After about a minute, toggle it back on, and the calendar entries will start repopulating, and the search function will start working. Depending on how many calendar entries you have, it will take a while to update, but I have thousands and it updated in less than one hour. Search function works again.

I have the same problem on just 1 Mac M1 Max - on every other device including this M1 Max -- ALL the calendar entries are present but on the on the M1 Max - the search in the calendar is not working properly.

Have called Apple support - they had no idea how to fix this.

I could try the mail account as suggested but being on the Mac it may be different?
