spotlight search field in iPad OS 13.1

Hi,


I just updated to iPad OS 13.1 and it seems that the Spotlight search field doesn't show anymore when I swipe down from the middle of the Home screen. The only thing I get is notifications (or widgets when I swipe from left edge to right, after swiping down).

Am I missing something?

Of course it is possible to get into Spotlight when I use the hardware keyboard shortcut CMD+Spacebar, so it is still there, but it would be nice if I could get there without the keyboard as it was in iOS 12 (and is in the documentation for iPad OS 13.1 on the Apple website)

SOLVED. Swipe down from empty space on desktop. Thanks to https://www.reddit.com/r/iPadOSBetas/comments/cselrt/where_is_ipados_spotlight/
