Hello johniswet,


Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities. We understand that you are having trouble locating an app after you've downloaded it in the App Store. We would love to provide you support on this. 


Sometimes apps are set to be stored in a different spot when downloaded instead of your Home Screen. Below is a couple of resources that tell you how to change where apps show after they are downloaded and tells you how to download apps:


Download apps and games on your iPhone or iPad

Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone


Additionally, if an app is downloaded and stored in your App Library you can scroll to the last screen after your Home Screen and locate the app in your App Library, then you can press and hold the app and drag it to your designated screen.



Thank you for allowing us to support you.


Have an awesome and productive day!
