Help Search apps crash com.motorola.home ???

Known issue. Maybe they will fix it with ICS. I only used it once when someone else mentioned it, probably because my app drawer is not that big (6 pages) where I would need to search for something by name, but in that event I would just use the voice search anyway, I have a shortcut on my main desktop I click then say [go to (app name)] and the app starts up. Probably low on the priority list of fixes for moto.

I might be wrong but I think it was new with the firmware update; I swear when I first got the phone this was a non-issue.

I'd just Like to say I had this problem too after I updated google search.
Then when I uninstalled it. It stopped doing that, try that to see if it works.

Excellent Hobo3000! Since this won't be the solution (Moto must fix that, I think), the workaround worked! My Google Search app was in the latest version (1.3.3.247963), and the problem occurs. I went to Market, My Applications, Google Search, and Uninstalled (this rollbacks to previous version of app), and the search of applications worked back!!!

Thanks for the workaround Hobo3000, it worked for me.

No problem, was quite angry when I had it, was ready to blame it on the new update.

Aahh...I never updated it. I rarely update most of my apps for some strange reason...lol.

Yeah I have this habit of updating everything...
