Since you have not informed us, I am assuming that you are using iOS version 14/15.

The Settings app cannot be deleted from your iPhone. The Settings app is probably still exists in the App Library. The App Library is the Last Home Screen when you continue to SWIPE LEFT (on the home screen) until you reach it. Once you are in the App Library, then you can locate the Settings app and then TOUCH, HOLD and DRAG the app out of there and place it on to your favorite part of the Home Screen.
