Welcome to Apple Support Communities Coach5215,


The Phone app cannot be deleted in iOS. It may have been removed from the Home Screen and should still be available in the App Library. On your iPhone swipe left until to see the App Library and search for the Phone app. Once located you can touch and hold the App and click "Add to Home Screen".


Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone


Hope that helps!
