Every now and then some apps disappear from my App Library. Sometimes installing a new app will somehow fix it. Turning phone off and on again doesn’t solve it. I never found an actual permanent fix to nor did I identify what triggers the issue. It’s a minimal issue but it really is annoying, so I’d appreciate any guidance on how to avoid it. I have an iPhone 11 and iOS is updated. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your reply. I am aware of that. All these categories should be full of apps. The point is that for whatever reason they disappear from the app categories and I can only find them if I search on the App Library search box.
I appreciate you trying to help me, but I don’t think you understand the issue. The categories within App Library are comprehensive, they are supposed to show every app that is installed in the phone. What is happening is that some apps disappear from the “front page” categories and I can only find them by searching for them using the App Library search box. It comes and goes and I can’t seem to know what triggers it and what solves the issue. Hope it’s clearer now. And it’s ok if you don’t know how to fix it, hopefully other users might chime in.
There is no point in anyone chiming in because, as I tried to intimate, neither you nor I have ANY influence on where the apps go. App Library is at best a work-in-progress.
You see some app categories have a group of 4 apps bottom right? Tap the centre of that group. It will open up a lot more apps in the category.
More likely they simply moved.
Congratulations for trying to use App Library. Not many do.
