Thanks!
Tap to Search has two ways that it can be triggered -- either with Long-press, or with Tap.  Long-press activation is disabled on Android O and later due to Smart Text Selection, which does similar help for the user.  

Please check if a tap triggers and let us know if the problem is just for long-press.  (Just filed issue 868108 to possibly address possible confusion with Smart Text Selection suppression).
Oh, one other thing: the very bottom of the SCREEN (where it would overlap the Bar) is disabled for Tap, and maybe for Long-press too.  You should be able to scroll up content so it's in the middle of the screen and trigger there.
Hi,

Is there any update on this issue further ?

Thanks,
Smita

karemanismita@gmail.com, for now you need to use just a single tap gesture in order to trigger Touch to Search (now renamed to be "Tap to Search").  Using the long-press gesture has been reserved for triggering the Smart Text Selection on Android O and later versions.  We know this is a point of some confusion, but it's the way we designed the interaction with Smart Text Selection when that feature was launched.  I think we need to revisit this decision, as indicated in issue 868108, but until then using Tap is the suggested method of triggering Tap to Search.
