Hello renjith144,


It sounds like you're wanting to prevent the Voice Memos application from being used by your children. Being able to manage which apps are accessible is very important, and you've come to a great place for help!


If you no longer want the Voice Memos application on the device at all you can delete the app as you would any other application, then redownload later if you want. Those steps can be found in the following article.


Delete built-in Apple apps from the Home screen on your iOS 14 or iPadOS or Apple Watch


The next option is using Screen Time to help restrict access to applications. You can find more information about Screen Time and parental controls can be found in the following articles.


Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Have a great week!
