how to disable AI Search Android 8.0 P10 lite

[pr999]

Almost every time I open my phone case I'm presented with AI Search.
How do I stop this happening please?

UPDATE -
After much searching I found AI Search in the System Apps and took a screen shot
I tried Force Stop, but that had no effect and I'm not sure there are any other settings on that screen that I can change.
Is there any way to stop this annoying feature?
Thanks
Pete

Welcome to Android Central! Does this go away in Safe Mode? https://safemodewiki.com/how-to-enable-safe-mode-on-huawei-p10-lite/. If so, then it's due to some 3rd party app you installed, either on purpose or unwittingly.

You have a magnetic case ?
Try removing to see if u have same issue

Thanks very much for your replies.
I've since discopvered it's part of the Huwawi suite of bloatware.
I don't use any 3rd party apps - I just use it as a phone and to send/receive txt msgs - occasionally a photo - and that's it.
If my finger touches the screen and moves up - that causes AI Search to come up, so it's something I do when I open the (magnetic) phone case.
I tried remving the phoine from the case and it still happens.

So I think it's a 'gesture' (?) - my finger touching the screen then moving up slightly.
I have no use for AI Search or all the other pages of 'stuff' that have appeard on my phone over the years.

So is there a way I can change the settings so that if i touch the screen and my finger moves upward this AI Search does not appear?

Many thanks

I made you the owner of the original guest post to make it easier to find.

See if the solution in this thread works: https://www.reddit.com/r/Huawei/comments/iddgah/comment/ghkbwmv/

Thanks Diddy
AI Search does not appear as an app so I can't follow the instructions

I've also just discovered that it's when I swipe DOWN on the Home screen that the AI Search appears, not UP as I said before - apologies for confusion.

Do you see an option to "Show System" in the Settings>Apps menu? AI Search might be considered a system app.

Cheers Diddy- If I go to Settings/Apps & Notifications the options are-
Notifications Management
Permissions
Default Apps
App Twin
Notifications & status bar

That's it

If I go to Settings/System there is no mention of Apps on that screen

There should be a system settings menu that shows you all of the apps that are installed -- that's where you would need to look for an option to Show All System Apps.
