Hi barbra162,

Welcome to the Apple Community, where some of us do our best to help troubleshoot.

Wondering which kind of apps you deleted.

Some app icons may be deleted from the Home Screen, yet still be on your iPhone

(Apple doesn't allow deletion on some of their installed apps.)

Apple Support hav e an article online to help with that:

Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone

Search for an app in the App Library

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211345

Then there are apps dowloaded from the App Store that can be re-downloaded if they are deleted.

To restore purchases that aren’t on your iPhone:

Apple support have an article to help with that.

Redownload apps, music, movies, TV shows and books

Hope this helps you :)
