search button on screenshots IOS 26.1 iPhone 13

Screenshots take a photo of exactly what is on the screen when you took the screenshot. If you had an iPhone capable of using Apple Intelligence, there is a cleanup tool included, which I imagine would remove things you don't want in a screenshot. But since you own an iPhone 13 mini, which doesn't include Apple Intelligence, you can't use that. You could use 3rd party photo processing tools like Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom to edit a photo.

I certainly respect those who find this useful. At least have a setting to simply turn it off.

Honestly, I expect that there are many, including me who can't even comprehend the relevance of what Apple's search button reveals.

I know: apple.com/feedback

Thanks for your help

You're welcome. I wouldn't hold much hope however, but yes, provide feedback to Apple. You're not really asking to make a change to screenshots. You're asking for a switch to turn off Search and that isn't likely. This really has nothing to do with screenshots.
