app store search not loading

Title says it.


I've got an iPhone 6S Plus. When I search in the app store, nothing ever loads, I just get the spinning icon forever. Only the featured page loads, the rest spin as well.


I've rebooted, updated, wiped the phone. Short of getting a new one, I've done it all.


What else can I do?

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 9.3.2

The app store app -search feature on my iphone6s too stopped responding to the searches. It only showing the trending search suggestions without responding to to search i type.


As somebody suggested on other forum, i clicked the search menu button at the bottom 10 times , it miraculously resolved the issue and now the search is responding.

Thank you very much for this info!

I, too, was not able to perform a search in the App Store AFTER updating to iOS 9.3.3 today. I followed the instructions you posted of tapping the Search button 10 times at the bottom of the App Store search screen and, viola! I had immediate use of the search function back.

If any other user has this issue just follow these instructions.
