How to remove spotlight search bar from the Lock Screen on iOS 15.1? Because itā€™s getting annoying when Iā€™m holding my phone and the sensor lights up the screen because of the movement the spotlight search bar pops up and i start to type unknowingly.

Hello raeda272,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!


We understand that you'd like to remove the search option on your iPhone Lock Screen. We'd be happy to help.


Here's how to Control access to information on the iPhone Lock Screen. Go to SettingsĀ > FaceĀ ID & Passcode (on an iPhone with FaceĀ ID) or TouchĀ ID & Passcode (on an iPhone with a Home button), then toggle off Today View and Search.


Have a nice day.
