Remove wikipedia from iPhone's "Look Up"

How can I remove wikipedia result when I look up a word using the "Look Up" function in iOS? At least, I need to be able to move it behind my dictionary results.

99% of my time when I use "Look Up", I intend to use dictionaries. Wikipedia is extremely irrelative and annoying. Plus, it is NOT a source of truth to me.

Look Up Feature Does anyone know how to get the "Look Up" function back on iPhone? This used to be really useful for quickly getting the definition of any word that you highlighted. Now whenever I long press to highlight a single word, I only get the options: Copy/Speak/Spell/Share/Copy URL The "Look Up" option is no longer there. Can anyone help? Many thanks.

“Lookup” option missing in contextual menu Hello there! I used to be able to select “Look Up” in contextual menu after selecting a specific words in any websites. By doing so I can look up the meaning of words with the help of my built-in dictionary in my iPhone12. However, that “look up” option somehow went missing in my menu recently and I just failed to find in back after many attempts in different means. Does anyone have any ideas about this issue? If so please let me know as this issue has been bugging me for a long time….thank you in advance!

"Look Up" function has disappeared Hello, I'm using a 13 Mini with iOS 16.2. Recently, the "Look Up" function has disappeared from some apps that used to connect smoothly to dictionaries. Now when I long press to highlight a word, I only get "Copy/Translate/Search Web/Share". It's not a major thing, but I guess I used it more than I realized, because I really miss it.

Hi there tealu,

In order to not see Siri Suggestions when using the Look Up feature, navigate to Settings > Siri & Search and disable 'Suggestions while Searching'.

This has more information about Siri Suggestions as well: Siri Suggestions on iPhone

We hope that helps!
