With iPad OS 13 I can’t figure out how to search for apps

I used to be able to swipe from the left to get a search box for finding the apps on my iPad. Since updating I now get a floating window with lots of data about various apps. Where did the search go?

From the center of the Home Screen? Do you have the Today screen locked on, is the time always displayed in the left corner? Bring your finger more to the center horizontally as well. Almost like you were trying to point to the center of the screen.
