When I use to depressed my home button it would take me to Google now but it has stopped working and now just shows what seems to be a magnifying glass but takes me no where..

What OS version are you now on? What launcher?

From your home screen, try swiping to the right (as if you were going to the previous screen). If you are using Android 5.x and up and the Google Now launcher (https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...id=com.google.android.launcher&token=p1nsDLLb), the furthest-left home screen will be Google Now.

I'm using Android 5.0 and TSF launcher but I've also got the Google Launcher and when I press the home button it doesn't launch Google Now I've tried my stock launcher I've got an LG G3 and it still won't take me to Google Now

So far as I recall, only the Google Now launcher will take you to the Google Now screen...

Same here, used to swipe up from the home button but it's now gone. Using nova launcher prime. With the gestures, I just swipe up anywhere on the screen and it opens Google now.
