I accidentally removed app from Home Screen. How do I get it back?
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
iPhone 7, iOS 14
From your Home Screen, swipe left until you get to the App Library.
Swipe downward and you'll get an alphabetical list of your apps.
Locate the app in the list or type the app name into the search field
Once you've located the app, tap/hold until it raises/selects, then drag it and it'll pop out to your Home Screen

the 'new feature' certainly has it's utility for me. I have over 300 apps on my phone and don't regularly use them all. Removing from Home Screen is a great way for me to clean up my Home Screen
Make sure your finger is swiping to the left. It should say App Library at the top
if you don't see the App Library, and you're seeing widgets.. you're swiping the wrong way and going to Today View instead of the App Library
You can get it back via setting or app library
I think this site will show the way..
it helps me a lot
Negative. One of the options now when you long press an app icon is to remove it from the Home Screen. I just deleted seflane from the Home Screen on accident and no clue where it went. Same as OP, when I go to App Store the only option is to open it. Not sure what the purpose of this new feature is.
This is great, thanks! I misunderstood "swipe left" and looked to the left screen of home screen and couldn't find App Library lol. Swipe left means you go to the right side of the screen, be careful!!
You can always see your deleted apps in the app store.
Go to : appstore then click on today at the bottom left and then click on name icon and then select purchased and from my purchases you will going to see all the apps you deleted from your iphone. And you can install it back from there.
Same happened to me. The app is LinkedIn. When I look it up in the App Store it only allows me to open it. I don’t get the option to re-download it.
It didn’t help I hit remove from Home Screen

Once you restore it you can also delete if you wanted to.
What you can also do is go to your App Library And find the app you want to delete
Awesome…after some head scratching like others. Folks, make sure you…
Swipe LEFT / SCROLL right
