Troubleshooting Defective Widgets:


A. Start with a Restart:

Restart your iPhone, and then see if this works.


B. Reset the Home Screen Layout:

If widgets are not working as they should or have gone missing somehow, then you need to reset the Home Screen Layout...

Go Here: Move and Organize Apps on iPhone - Apple Support

You'd have to add back all the widgets that you can recall being back on there. So, write down what is currently on the Home Screen.

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
  5. Then... Add the apps back

Hi arajo,

Welcome to the Apple Community.


Seems your app icons may now be organised in different categories / on different "pages"., (or ... may be "hidden")

You can likely see them all in the App Library.


You can customise the way your app icons are displayed, so you see what you want, where you want.

Apple Support have an article online (link below) that may help:


Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone - Apple Support


And

How to: move icons around on the Home Screen:


Move apps and widgets on the Home Screen on iPhone – Apple Support (AU)


All the best :-)
