So this means the search will be performed in that particular section
.According to me  search should be performed on all the activities and not
just on a particular section this is because a user might remember the name
of the activity but not the section to which it belongs .I like the idea
you have suggested for mobile ,long click or double click would give a
search bar ,but this  should be for potrait mode

So my proposal:

On desktop and mobile in landscape mode,we can place the icon on the bottom
next to configuration icon ,since there is enough space ,on clicking it
would expand to a search bar .

 For potrait mode  i like what bruno sir suggested .

If anyone else has any other suggestion then please provide them,would be a
great help . :)
