Apps not showing up when downloaded.

I never asked for my apps to be invisible and yet that is what is happening to new apps. Please fix this. It's not a feature to automatically have apps hidden.


Having read your instructions about hidden apps, it says I have none hiding, yet I cannot see new apps. Help!

iPhone SE, iOS 14

The "hide" function only hides items in your purchased list - not on your iPhone. See the 'What happens when you hide an app?' section in:

Hide purchases from the App Store - Apple Support

The app is probably on another screen or in a folder where you don't expect to find it. Search for it on your iPhone:

Use Search on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
