Why can't you search the new iBooks store?

There doesn't appear to be a way to search the new (iOS 12) iBooks store. When you click the search icon at the bottom of the main page, it only searches your own personal library. When you go to the iBooks store itself, it only lets you browse. What's up with that? Anybody figured this out?


Thanks


Jim

I’m not sure if this is going to work. But in settings I have toggled > Books Settings > Online Content > Allow Books to access publisher’s content from the internet.


Hope that will help. But I am not use this is the final solution. As I also struggle to search the bookstore.


There are other settings - in Settings - that might need to be adjusted to sort this issue.
