why is my child still able to search photos from home screen search

I thought I set all the parental control settings on my child's iPhone 6s plus. However she is still able to go to the home screen search bar and search photos and stuff.... how do I restrict this?

Parental Controls: Disable Screenshot Utility I locked our kids out of the iPad, so they can only listen to audio books while playing with their toys. When I then leave them to play alone, they can still activate the screenshot utility and then they make 1000+ screenshots and continue playing with the screenshot utility, instead of playing with their toys. How can I disable the screenshot utility?

Allow changes to photos not working under Screen Time restrictions on iPhone 15 Pro I have Screen Time turned on for my kid. Under Content & Privacy Restrictions / Privacy, I've set a restriction on letting apps access her photos. I went in there to switch it to "Allow Changes" so she can let a new app have access to her photos. However, there's a problem. The little check mark switches to "Allow Changes" when I click on it - but it doesn't ask for my Screen Time passcode. And then when I exit back to the main privacy screen, Photos remains at "Don't Allow," and the option to allow access to Photos in the app and through Settings is not available. I've tried allowing changes to Accounts and everything else I can think of, and I still can't get the privacy settings to work properly. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

I have websites blocked and Siri however in the home screen you can still search things like images and videos on the web. This is not covered or I would not be asking here.
