I'm sorry for the impact that this change has caused to how you used search in the past. I know how important it is for search functionality to be intuitive and effective, and how intrusive sudden changes can be. I've shared your feedback with the team.
For the time being, long-pressing on the 1Password app icon from your home screen and then tapping Search will allow you to open search quickly without having to first open the app and then tap on the search field at the top of the screen:
