Spotlight not giving me an option to search web

Sometimes spotlight does not give me an option to search web. Did a reset and restore but same issue. This is on iPhone 6s Plus on iOS 9.3.2

Fixed it by doing a reset and not restoring the backup. There is no selective restore so I can't restore my messages. Apple software is becoming really buggy.

I noticed the same thing for a few days. Now it's fine.

Glad you got it working. Always go with the reset first There are ways to restore iMessages by extracting from a backup but I haven't tried it.

I actually restored the backup and it is working fine. Maybe there was something wrong with the service. My wife phone had the same issue but now it is working fine. I wonder what happened.

If it stops working again try going into Settings, then General, and finally Spotlight Search. Disable Bing Web Results or Bing search or whatever its called!

Worked for me instantly ever since!

I'm on 9.3.3 and don't see those anymore. What iOS version are you on?

I was looking for it at the top. Could have sworn it used to be there before!
