How to center navbar links in responsive view mode - html

Question

I need to align some elements in the center when the navbar is collapsed in responsive view, via the collapse button
At the moment I dont like the way my searchbox is padded, is there a way I could center it better?
My 'bell notification icon' and 'user dropdown' currently are position to the left, I want these to be positioned in the middle.
this is currently what it looks like:
I would like this to work in other browsers as well.

Answer 1

I hope to help you, if you want to focus the search input of the same, although I would make a width and shrink a bit
EXAMPLE BOOTPLY

Answer 2

The problem now is that the font size is very large for a navbar
reduces the font size "font-size: 26px; for example" of the title LOGOHERE, or put an image tag img-responsive
