The search widget disappeared, both from the desktop and the widgets list in android. This particular widget is the most valuable to me. I don´t know what to do. Not useful help found in the net about this issue. Please, I need some help. I don´t want to uninstall FF, unless last resource.

This widget is being discontinued starting with version 58.

Yes, the widget was lost a month or so ago. I think I could match the update to 58. I'm sorry for what you say. So, is there no chance to recover it? Next update, some kind of trick or 'hack'?

Well, you could try to install v. 57 from here but it's quite inconvenient.

Yes, i agree. Firefox Focus opens a simple and fast search bar. I think gonna try this better. Thank you very much for your help!
