Need to disable the downloading of apps

"Need to disable the downloading of apps: I have an iPhone 15. My screen time is intentionally enabled, and apps are unable to be downloaded. However, when you swipe to the 'today menu,' and search an app, it says 'get' and you can download. Is there a way to disable that?"
