What type of App is this:


B. If a Third-Party App:

Re-Download it: If you've lost an app, then re-download it from the App Store. Visit this link: View and Manage Purchased Apps in the App Store on Mac - Apple Support


B. If a Builtin App:

Reset the Home Screen Layout:

If widgets are not working as they should, 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
