Hi punditz,
Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand that you're having trouble finding the Maps app on your iPhone, but you see that it's installed and you can use it. I can see why you'd reach out for assistance with this; I'd like to help. I'd recommend using the steps in the following resource to search for the app on your iPhone; if the app is located in a folder on your Home screen, the name of the folder will be listed to the right of the app in the search results: Use Search on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you're able to locate the app using Search, you can use these steps to move it on your Home screen where you'd like it to be: How to move apps and create folders on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Best Regards.

Hi Starr,
Thanks for responding! When I search for Maps, the icon appears underneath the search box, and I can open the app by clicking on it. However, I can't move the icon to any of my home pages and there is no indication that its in any folder.
Thanks again.
I had this problem with two not showing on a new iPad Pro, including the Apple TV app. It was listed in Settings and would open from there. Another app was not listed in Settings but would open from the App store. Both would open using a Siri command. I solved the problem by dragging the icons from the Task bar onto the Home screen.
Thanks. I just found the maps icon in a folder that I hadn't noticed before and dragged it to my home screen.
