Disable swipe left and right on home screen

Hi everyone,

I've went through all imaginable and possible pages and foruns regarding iPhone user personalization, and I would like to know, as a ultimate answer, if it is possible or if there is any work around, to disable the swipe left to access search, and swipe right to get to App Library (this last one being not possible to disable on iOS 14, however my phone is already on 15.1).


I am an old school and very basic iPhone user, and disabling that, would make things a lot less prone to make a unwanted mess.


Attached, you may find a picture of my home screen and both other screens I would like to disable access.



Thanks for any response in advance.


Pedro

No, there is no way to disable that feature.
