Additional Notes

• If you cannot turn off SafeSearch, it may be due to parental controls, network restrictions, or administrator settings on your device or network. Clearing browser cache and cookies or switching networks might help

• On iPhones, Screen Time restrictions often cause SafeSearch to stay enabled even if you turn it off in Google settings

• Public or school/work networks may enforce SafeSearch at the network level, which you cannot override without network admin permission

Following these steps should allow you to disable SafeSearch and access unfiltered Google search results.
