How do I turn off search restrictions on my iPad?

Unlocking Your iPad’s Search Filters

Constantly encountering restricted search results on your iPad? You might have search filters enabled. Fortunately, adjusting these settings is straightforward.

To remove search limitations and broaden your online exploration, navigate to your iPad’s SafeSearch settings. Within this section, you’ll find options for controlling the types of content you see. Choose from various filter levels to suit your needs:

• Filter: This option provides the most restrictive filter, potentially blocking a wider range of potentially sensitive or inappropriate content.

• Blur: Blurred results provide a compromise, often obscuring potentially offensive content while still allowing you to access the query.

• Off: This option disables all search restrictions, displaying results as they appear without any filtering.

Keep an eye out for a lock icon. If present, it signifies that your SafeSearch settings are managed by an external source, such as a parental control system. In such cases, check the relevant settings page for instructions on how to adjust the filter level. Once you’ve selected your desired filter level, simply tap the “Back” button to save your changes. Your search results should now reflect your chosen settings.
