    Why is my search bar not working on Facebook?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Various reasons for the issues Facebook users find with the app are listed as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Poor Network Connection<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Facebook bugs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Facebook server issues<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Copyright issues<\/li>\n\n\n\n

      Fixes for Facebook Search Bar not Working<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      1. Check the Internet Connection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      One of the fastest ways to deal with issues such as the Facebook search bar not working is to check and make sure that you have enough internet connection to access the app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Lack of a strong internet connection gives you very little or no chance to access the app, hence giving you problems like the Facebook search bar could not load any results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You may first have to check if you have an active data allocation that permits you to access the Facebook app very efficiently and also use the search bar to load results. The lack of an active data allocation limits the ability of the search bar to provide you with the results you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To resolve this, first, check if you have an active internet connection or data plan. Also, you should check the strength of your internet connection and this can easily be done by using fast.com<\/a> to check how fast or slow your internet connection is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"Facebook<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      When you are done checking the strength of your internet connection and you realize you are having a speed of your network ranging below 5Mbps, then you should find your internet connection very problematic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      You, therefore, have to either connect to a stronger network or upload your network server with enough data allocation. After doing this try to check if your Facebook pictures are still not loading on your phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Relaunch the Facebook App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      After checking the strength of your Internet connection and you realize it is very strong enough to enable you to access the Facebook search bar correctly, one of the quickest and simplest ways to deal with such issues concerning the Facebook search bar is by quitting the app quickly and relaunching it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      For this, you must leave the Facebook app and clear all running apps in the background. If you are using the browser to access <\/strong>Facebook, then you should clear the Facebook web tab and open it on a new tab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      After quitting the app, relaunch the app and check if you still encounter the issue of <\/strong>Facebook searches not loading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      3. Check the Facebook Server Status<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Occasionally, the issue of the Facebook search bar not showing profiles or the Facebook marketplace search bar not working may not be your fault. This is because there are sometimes general glitches that happen in the systems of Facebook, causing all users to get stuck accessing the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The Facebook system may be under maintenance which is expectedly to cause the Facebook app to malfunction more than usual when the user is in the course of using the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This may occur when you are trying to search for Profiles with the Facebook search bar, upload Facebook stories, or load Facebook pictures. It happens once in a while but if you are unfortunate and it happens, you may not be too sure if it\u2019s actually just you or a general problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Due to the fact that the issue may be from the Facebook server, you should endeavor to check using Down Detector<\/a> to check if the system is actually down or not. Search for \u201cFacebook\u201d on the software and check if they serve you with Facebook outage reports in your region<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Aside from this, you can also check Twitter to find out if there has been an official communique from Facebook about their app malfunctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4. Launch Facebook with the Facebook Web<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      After going through all the processes above and the Facebook search bar is still not working, then it may also be a problem with the Facebook app on your android or iOS so you should consider launching Facebook with the use of the Facebook web. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
