Just noticed this about 1-2 week ago, late November or early December.
Anyone else Search function removed from the bottom of the screen? There suppose to be a Search selection when a video is playing on YouTube on the bottom of the screen. Now you have to exist out the video while it's playing to search for a video or the only way to search while the video is playing is use the MIC.
FYI, I do not have a YouTube account. Never did and I never will.

We highly suggest you contact YouTube Channel support directly for further assistance as they manage and develop their app through the Roku Streaming platform.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Yes, I have left them a feedback with a screenshot as well. As I mentioned, I do not have a Youtube account so they're less likely to contact me back. Thank you.
