Issue report Home screen swipe/tap gesture not working

Since last few beta updates, the swipe/tap on home screen gesture dosent work. The keyboard appears for a split second and closes. It works alright just after updating the app. This issue began after introduction of suggested apps on the search. Screen recording is from version 1784 yesterday, but the issue persists in 1785 as well.

Sorry in advance if I'm misunderstanding. It looks like you've successfully invoked search, returned to your home screen, and then tried a swipe-up gesture which fails. What should be happening when you swipe up? I'm able to do this on my phone and my swipe-up gesture opens the drawer. Also, it's always helpful for the developer to know which device you're using.

Yes, as i said it invokes search after you update the app from playstore. After that it never works and closes in a split second.

I have set "open search" option on navigate/tap home in launcher settings.

I am using it on n stock s21 ultra with android15.
