omnibox

Universal address bar

Omnibox is the combined address bar and search field in web browsers like Google Chrome.

Rather than separate boxes for URLs and searches, the omnibox handles both—type a web address to navigate directly, or type search terms to query your default search engine.

Just type your question into the omnibox.

The term combines "omni" (all) with "box."
