If you go to Settings > Home Screen, you likely have App Library Only selected. That means when you download a new app, it will not show up on your Home Screen, it will just tuck itself away in the App Library

From your Home Screen, swipe left until you get to the App Library.

Swipe downward and you'll get an alphabetical list of your apps.

Locate the app in the list or type the app name into the search field

Once you've located the app, tap/hold until it raises/selects, then drag it and it'll pop out to your Home Screen
