I seem to have lost my App Store icon and can’t download any apps. How do I find and restore it.

Check your restriction.

App Store can only be hidden but not deleted.

Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes and App Store Purchases > Installing Apps : Allow.

Note To see and make changes Content & Privacy Restrictions must be enabled.
