How do I fully unlink iPhone notifications from MacBook Pro after repair?

I just got my MBP back from repairs and because of the repairs I have to set everything up again. Previously I had it so I get no notifications on my MBP from my iPhone from my Messages, Mail, and Safari. I think I managed to halfway make it there, but whenever I open up any of those apps, an icon comes up on my taskbar like I circled in red on the taskbar in the screenshot. Please help!!! I have iOS 17.6.1 and macOS 13.5.

"To reiterate, whenever I open either Mail, Messages, or Safari on my iPhone, an icon pops up on my dock but goes away when I go out of that app on my iPhone. I don't want it coming up at all."

Provide this Icon:

Take a screen recording of your macOS. then, open the screen recording, and pause it when you see this icon. Then, take a screenshot of the portion of your screen where you see this.

I updated my phone to iOS 18.4.1 and it seemed to do the trick, but all of a sudden it started happening again. That link "Manage iPhone notifications of Mac" doesn't work because none of the instructions line up to what I see on my screen when I try to do what the page says.
