Our widgets were (and still are) configured to search features from site address points and parcel feature classes. Some used esri's world locator as a third option. Configured the same way, our old maps would return a result and highlight it but failed to zoom to the selection automatically or when the suggested value was clicked. When maps and apps were created anew from scratch using the same settings as the old maps, they worked again. Similarly, the permissions issues were fixed. The displayed content on the mobile version of the home page, it seems to me, is a symptom of a larger problem. The way that AGOL permissions are setup should be changed so that the underlying components of a web app don't have to be exposed in the same way that the application itself is. I shouldn't have to make the web map and services, logos, basemaps, tiles, service defs, etc. visible and searchable on their own for them to be able to be displayed in the apps. Even if all of our content was intended to be completely open (which it isn't) displaying all that content instead of selected content makes the site virtually unintelligible for it's target audience - the public. This isn't an bug ESRI should just sit on for months. It really needs to be fixed right away. You've made the GIS home page for many organizations pretty much worthless on mobile.
