Is Settings in your App Library? If so, drag it from there to your Home Screen.

Always be prepared to lose information. That’s why backups are so important.

Put your finger on the middle of the screen and swipe down to open Search. Then type “Settings”. You can then tap Open. If it is in a folder the folder name will be displayed.


Or, the App Library is the last page of the Home Screen. Just keep swiping from right to left until it appears. The find Settings, hold you finger on it, and drag it back to the Home screen.
