Search doesn't work on Android

The name search doesn't work on my Samsung tablet or phone. Not on Google, Samsung internet or Google Chrome.
I do get results if I search for a year,  but that's a bit useless really.
It is fine on my desktop with Chrome.

Farrell is a name which is definitely there.

Any ideas .

Try going in via Wrexham.gov.uk/services  Then select cemetery. This offers various options inc  Family history research, which takes you to  the database. Enter  Name

Tried that an no different.
It's a bit mad. I searched for a Hannah with no surname,  First one was surname Bagnall.
Tried a search for Bagnall and no results. 🤔

That search works for me (Android 12), although Bagnall not first Hannah.
So are you saying the search doesn't work, or just doesn't give you the results expected?

I have just clicked search with nothing entered in any fields.
I get 37665 hits with full details.
I choose any of these surnames but still get the " no results for your search"
