IF you backed up the phone before updating as advised in the dialog then the easiest would be to restore the ohone to factory settings then restore that backup


 Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support


Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support

 

If you didn't back it up then see if the apps are in your App Library after the last home screen then drag them back
