iPhone: Finding what page apps are located on

Is there anyway to find out what page an app is located on in the iPhone?

Searching for the app is easy when one looks at the search page, but then after that I would like to know where that app is located on the phone.

I can get the app from the search page but I don’t know where it is on the phone. Thank you

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

if you are searching for the app by swiping downward on your Home Screen and typing in the app name.. the app is listed just below the field you're typing in.. if it's in a folder, it will tell you the name of the folder off to the right.

Other than that, you'd simply need to search for your app.


Another approach.. If you don't know where it is, but know where you want it..

Go to the App Library by swiping from right to left on your Home Screen until you get to the App Library.

Either pull downward and you'll get an alphabetical list of your apps, or type the app in to the search field.

Once the app is located, tap/hold and then drag. It'll pop out to your Home Screen from wherever it was hiding and you can place it wherever you want it.
