Description

Hello!

I am seeing some odd behavior in Safari on iOS 12.

I am unable to touch autocomplete suggestions from the geocoder. When I touch a result, the keyboard closes and nothing happens. If I try the example at https://docs.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/example/mapbox-gl-geocoder/ all I get is a "There was an error reaching the server"

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the linked Mapbox GL geocoder example using Safari on iOS 12. Check both autocomplete result selection after a touch and the reported server error. Done means a touch selects a geocoder suggestion and the example completes the request without that error.
