I didn't know anyone uses those...
But aren't they widgets? I don't even know if you can change it, you might have to use a different widget
I have a Pixel. The Pixel Launcher that comes stock on the phone has a Google search thing that is not removable except via switching to another launcher. It looks like a widget, but you can't remove it. It exists on every "panel" of the screen, below the app shortcuts.
I do use it quite a bit when making searches, but only because it's there already and can't be removed. If I could remove it, I would.
It's supremely useful if you want to use Google search. If you don't on the other hand... 🥲
Is that part of the problem?
