The Camera app cannot be deleted from the iPhone since it is a part of iOS. It is probably accidentally removed from the Home Screen, however, still exists in the App Library. The App Library is the last Home Screen on your iPhone when you continue to SWIPE LEFT until you reach it. Once you are in the App Library, then you can search and find the Camera app. Once found, then you can DRAG the app out of there and place it on your favorite spot of the Home Screen.

Thanks for this I’ve done exactly as Axel F suggested, & has worked perfectly, having checked the App Store I knew
the camera was somewhere, but didn’t know how to reinstate it. Thanks again.
