Disappearing apps but the number is still there as far a # of messages that’s at right hand corner of app

How do I fix my iPad, like in the subject field my apps are not on screen but all their notifications ( the little numbers for messages or actions) are still in the right hand corner of each app. Makes no sense

iPad, iPadOS 15

Reset the Home Screen Layout:

If the a widget has gone missing somehow, then you need to reset the Home Screen Layout...


Go Here: Move and organize apps on iPhone - Apple Support

Note: You'd have to add back all the widgets that you can recall being back on there. So, make note of them.

Scroll to: Reset the Home Screen and Apps to their Original Layout

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: General
  3. Tap: Reset
  4. Tap: Reset Home Screen Layout
