Google Discover is actually just a tab in the Google app. You can access it in a few ways, including simply opening the Google app. However, if you’re looking for quick Home-screen access, you probably already have a shortcut.
Tapping the Google logo (the “G”) on the Google Search widget will take you directly to the Discover tab. There’s a good chance the Google widget is already preloaded on your phone or tablet’s Home screen.
The Discover tab’s user interface in the Google app is slightly different than the Discover pane built into launchers, but the information is identical.

One thing to note is this only works with the Google Search widget. It doesn’t work with Google Search bars built into the launcher, like the one under the Dock on the Pixel Launcher.

Scroll down to the “Search” widget from the Google app, and then press and hold it.
You can drag the widget anywhere you want on the Home screen, and then drop it.
