Hi there Litqueen43,


It sounds like the Messages widget is missing from the Home screen on your iPhone, and you're asking how to get it back. We're glad you've joined us in Apple Support Communities, and we can provide some guidance.


  1. "From the Home Screen, touch and hold a widget or an empty area until the apps jiggle.
  2. Tap the Add button  in the upper-left corner.
  3. Select a widget, choose from three widget sizes, then tap Add Widget.
  4. Tap Done."
