Finding All Hidden apps I recently had found that some of the app icons were missing from my screen after putting my iPhone in my pocket before locking the screen. One of the apps missing was Settings (!). I found out how to get the apps back: they had been hidden from my Home Screen, not deleted, and I individually found them in the App Library listing on the far right (= swipe left all the way). I know that part already. What I am wanting to ask is if there is any way to have a complete listing of all Apps that are currently installed on my iPhone, that are also currently being hidden from my Home Screen? That way I can find all the other Apps that I cannot currently recall what they were. I understand that the “long way” would be to look through my many-years long full transaction history on my iCloud account, then make a table of those, checking off each one that is still currently installed, and does still appear on my Home Screen. The ones not checked off would be either the uninstalled ones or the hidden ones. . . Then check off the uninstalled ones, leading to my hidden list that I wanted. But that would take hours at least! I’ll bet there is currently (on the current iOS 16.6) no such hidden list available on the iPhone, am I right?

Screen Time, if enabled, may throw some light on this.
