How do I remove the gifs app from messages in iOS 17?

With previous updates, it was possible to choose which ‘additional apps’ are accessible on messages (at the bottom of the screen when typing a message). IOS 17 seems to automatically install the gifs app, and I don’t see how to disable it.

explicit content in the gifs search is not blurred or blocked in any way.

iPhone 11, iOS 16

Agreed. This needs to be addressed immediately for all who do not want access to mature content.
