Hi all
Running iOS 14.7.1 on an iPhone 11. When I am at my home screen and pull down to search, I cannot search for all my apps. Some apps show up but some do not. Example: when I type in "s" I see Spotify, Sheets, but I do not see Strava.

My work around is I have to flip to the App Library and there the search works just fine. However, I want to be able to search from the home screen.

When I go into Settings -> Siri & Search, "Suggestions while Searching", "Suggestions on Home Screen" are all toggled ON.

Where is the setting to edit what I see/search for in search?

I just want to be able to search for apps and contacts. I don't care for any other search dimensions

Thanks in advance

That worked!
Is there a way to set this for all apps instead of one at a time?
I’ve never had to go back and enable a specific app. I believe when you download an app or when you first use one the Siri search option will be presented. So if you’ve used it you’ll have enabled it, or not. But if you have never used it then you may have to do it app by app.
