Hi Adil05,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. 


We understand that you have lost an app folder that was on your iPhone Home Screen and we’re happy to help! We'd like for you to check and see if the folder is in a hidden page. To find a hidden page follow the steps below:


  1. “Touch and hold an empty area on your Home Screen.
  2. Tap the dots near the bottom of your screen.
  3. Tap the circle under the page that you want to hide.
  4. Tap Done.


To unhide a page, repeat the steps above. Then use the App Library to quickly find apps hidden on different pages.”


For additional information check out the Apple Support article Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone.


If you still can’t find the folder and you have an iPhone backup, then you can Restore all content to iPhone from a backup. Please note that if you Restore all content to iPhone from a backup you may loose content that was done after the last back up date. 


We hope this helps.


Take care.
