Q: Apple news app missing, can't download it
I don't have the app installed, I think I deleted it back in iOS 9. Anyways, I wanted to try out the new iOS 10 version and I can't find the News app. I searched but couldn't find it on the App Store. I found the News app page on Apple's site and clicking the "get Apple News" link just refreshed the page. my wife was able to locate the News app on the App Store on her phone so I had my wife text the link to to me. I was then able to get to the News app page in the App Store but the "open" button is inactive so there's no way to open or download the app.
So how can I get the Apple News app on my phone again? Why am I having the issues that I'm having tracking down the app?
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8

Even if you don't have restrictions enabled, try going to Settings>General>Restrictions and Enabled Restrictions (you'll need to enter and verify a PIN code). Then scroll down to find Apps, select it, and make sure to select All Apps. Then you should be able to disable restrictions again.
