Search widget no longer shows cards

[Android Central Question]

I have a Galaxy Note 5. Before, when I touched the Google search bar/widget that I have on the homescreen, it automatically showed info cards relevant to me. Yesterday it suddenly changed: now when I touch it, instead of cards it shows a normal desktop-like Google search with anticipated things that I'll type, etc., and at the bottom it says "Check out your feed" but I have to touch a new house icon to get it. Don't like this!! How may I change it back?

Not sure what changed, but you can't. If you launch Google from the search bar widget, you will get that 'extra step' to get your news now. If you open the Google App or summon from Assistant, those should still be as before.
