Lawnchair: Suggestion: Jump right to app search bar in app drawer.

[GAZ082]

Hi! I think this was default in Google Now launcher and I loved it because makes finding apps faster. An option to enable that would be awesome!

Thanks!

@GAZ082 Uhm, you know that this is a Pixel style launcher and the app drawer therefore has a scrolling list?

[GAZ082]

I'm not saying remove the scroll list, just put the cursor in the already
existing search bar in the drawer instead of having to tap it as an
option so those who do not like do not use it.

@GAZ082 Long pressing on the drawer arrow directly focuses the search bar

[GAZ082]

@deletescape oh cool! Not as easy because you can miss the arrow but I think it will suffice.

However, I leave this open.

that option would be great. It also available in the oxygenos launcher and the default on ios when you pull down on the homescreen.

[deletescape]

@faroit You can set the app search to be the default action for pulling down

[faroit]

@deletescape but many people are used to pull down the notification shade. So it should rather be an option for the pull __up__ gesture. Hence, thats why @GAZ082 suggested to just make an option to directly put the focus into the search field (and therefore trigger the keyboard) of the app drawer.

[divadsn]

@faroit pull up is for the app drawer, just saying...

[faroit]

@divadsn indeed. Again, more precise: The feature request is about enabling the "Search Apps" text field focus __directly__ when you pull up the app drawer.

[divadsn]

@faroit long press the arrow then ;)

[faroit]

@divadsn long press is not as quick as a gesture

[GAZ082]

The arrow is too small and it's cumbersome to long press it. I'm using a 4,6" phone (XZ1 Compact).

An option to jump straight to the app search bar would be awesome. I appreciate the support of others in regard of this idea.

There is already a pull down gesture to jump straight to the app search, add a pull up gesture and same option. Just saying.

[faroit]

Actually the OnePlus launcher calls the feature quick search and has integrated it in the small menu next to the input field

[faroit]

@divadsn do you have some arguments for not including this option? I could provide a PR

[deletescape]

@faroit This option is available with the gesture options in V2

[faroit]

good to know. thanks!

Just found this issue two years later and happy to find a solution. But I hope you changed your attitude towards requests like this, @divadsn.
