apple music app not in search results

The Music app is installed on my iPhone, but when I swipe down in the center of my screen to search for it, it does not show up as any of the results. I have deleted and reinstalled the app. I am currently using iOS 15, but the problem was happening with iOS 14 as well. The app is working fine and has all my music, but the app is not searchable.
