of course is not a big deal.
Of course there is also SIRI and as long as you know the name of the app you
want telling SIRI to open it I also find quite easy and typically faster than
bringing up spotlight search, starting to type and then finding what I want.

You may need to go into settings and then to general and then to spotlight and

Hello all,
I used to be able to open spotlight search, type the few few letters and get
immediate results of possible apps, contacts, etc. that started with those
letters. Now, when I do that, I get no results. Any idea what might be going

Yes, Siri does work for finding and opening any app. However, I'm often in a
setting where Cannot use Siri and would rather enter the name of the app in
