How do I put the Google search bar widget on my home screen. I have a Huawei P20 Lite

I accidentally removed the search bar widget from my home screen but now I don't know how to get it back. It is annoying because Its just easier to click on the little search bar.

Hi Luke Kane,

Check following steps.

Keep space for Google Search bar on your home screen.
Hard press your display until you'll see options for Widgets.
Search for Google toolbar.
Press on it and place it to home screen.

Hi Nimal Marasingha, read all previous replies. Also, check to see if your manufacture has its own website/help center to give specific instructions for your own phone.

Just go to the play store and search for the Google search and then installed it. After that click to your widget and you will find Google bar in your widget and then you can place it where you like to place it

So everyone who is still requesting help, please let me know which previous suggestions did not work and where it did it not go so well. A few people have even included screenshots of what some things should look like.

Hi User 14042274154109484238, since every phone is different check with the manufacture of the phone to be sure on how to put the Google search bar on the home screen.

But typically instructions can look like https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/what-are-widgets-and-how-do-i-add-them-to-my-android-smartphone-or-tablet/ or https://oppo.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/6321/kw/widgets%20on%20home%20screen/session/L3RpbWUvMTU5NzM4MzE4Ni9nZW4vMTU5NzM4MzE4Ni9zaWQvZlVJajcwQkU1Rl93ZE42cTJQMFc1V0N5TUJKdGF5UjRFSnVFWlNSSmFoaUZsQzF6TjJxb0Yzc1M2c0s0dXE1UkRWbDVyYSU3RUJQWXJERndURyU3RVdiJTdFNmswQVNBYkp1X0doejJJbTVLUmdkWjVsS1hxNHRFdDVjeUN3JTIxJTIx. But you should check with your phone's manufacture to see what would they even consider the Google Search bar since maybe to them, it's not considered a "widget." I personally don't have this device so can't check with my device to see what it would be called.
