Google Search Bar Hidden

Since the iOS 16.1.1 update my Google search bar on my iPhone 11 is hidden at the top. The only way I can use it is with the microphone. Has anybody found a solution to this? Thanks

iPhone 11, iOS 16

Thank you Michelle. This is in both Safari and chrome. Only on my phone not on my iPad. Since the 16.1.1 update I cannot type in the Google search bar. The search bar is hidden at the top. This is all of result of the update with Apple. Nothing to do with Google. Thank you.

Hi Dileer,

Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities!

We understand that your Google search bar is missing.

Are you referring to using Google Chrome? If so, you may consider contacting Google directly to help you to restore the search bar within their app: How to contact an app developer - Apple Support

If you're referring to an Apple app, just let us know which app you're using, and we'll take it from there.

Cheers!

Hi Dileer,

Thank you for clarifying that. The search bar/address bar for Safari in iOS 16 is located at the bottom rather than the top. You can check out these instructions for further information:
