iPhone apps appearing in MacBook's Launchpad after macOS 26 update

After updating my MacBook to macOS 26, the launchpad is showing all the apps from my iPhone as well. This makes my MacBook look unprofessional since I use it mainly for work. How can I prevent this from happening and remove those iPhone apps?
