Search function on IOS (Specifically IPAD) not working properly

On my iPad. Since the new layout was introduced I have noticed that when you type an artists in the search bar sort of ‘freezes’ and will not let you retype to search again. Have to completely come out of the iPad and start agin. Assume this a bug that will hopefully be fixed soon.

      The issue still exists on iPad, but there is a work around, you can search and as long as you won’t press “return” in iPad keyboard at the end of the search bar, then your iPad won’t get stuck and you’re able to clear the search bar.

      Guys, I played around a bit and found a workaround:

      • open Deezer on iPad which we do usually in landscape format
      • click on Search (one of the 4 buttons on top beside Home, Favorites,…) but don’t use the search bar yet
      • turn iPad in portrait format such as you would use on iPhone, don’t use search bar yet
      • turn iPad back into landscape format → now search bar stays stable, does not move to upper part of window/frame and is working properly, I can now perform several searches without freezing
      • This procedure also fixes the search bar when it was already used and is frozen

      This is certainly only a workaround that - at least for me - does the job, and certainly not a long term solution!  Furthermore, my observation might help Deezer developers to hopefully now fix the root cause ;)
