Looking for a minimalist look for your iPhone's home screen? Apple's design is already sleek, but you might want to remove that search bar. This guide is perfect for you! In this post, I'll show you how to remove the search bar from your iPhone's home screen.

First introduced in the iOS 16 update, the Search bar is used for Spotlight searches and quickly finding items on your device. However, not everyone is a fan. Stick with this post to learn how to remove it and go back to the old swipe-down search style.

The Search bar, or Spotlight Search, is the same on iPhones. Use it to find apps, contacts, messages, and more. It also pulls results from the web, the App Store, and Apple Music. With recent updates, you can even send messages, toggle settings like turning off Bluetooth or turning on cellular data, and more.

That’s it! The search bar will disappear from your home screen.
