Possible to add text to the navagation search bar?

Hello,
Using the Prime site library. Is it possible to add something like "Search Now" to the search bar? I guess it's called a placeholder?
I've looked on the customization tab and could only find these options:
Primary Navigation/Navigation Search/Enable/Disable.
And then there are options for background color, menu height and width but nothing to customize the search bar itself.
I basically just want to enhance the search bar look a little bit. When you click on the magnifying glass icon,I would like just a little text there that says something like "search this site", search now" or "find your favorite product"
I also have Elementor, so maybe it can be added that way?
Hi there,
you can add a Placeholder using a PHP Snippet - this doc provides that:

Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for.
Glad to be of help
