get it back on your Home Screen from the App Library..


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

You have probably moved it to the App Library.


Go to your home screen and swipe as far to the right as you can until you arrive at the App Library.

Find the app, long press on it, and drag it back to the home screen.


This is App Library
