How do I get a home screen back when all Focus modes are off?

I created a home screen and added it to a focus mode and then hid it in my normal (no focus modes enabled) view. But I decided I want it back. However when I hold down on the screen to edit my home screen, and then tap the dots to bring up the home screen viewer where you can toggle them visible/not visible, that home screen isn't there any more. It DOES still exist in my focus mode, but I can't get it back to my default non-focus mode. Can someone help?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16

Hello sarahfelldown,

While there isn't a means to undo a Focus creation - only delete it - you can recreate the home screen and use it like normal. If you need to set up the screen without any modifications, follow the steps from Move apps and widgets on the Home Screen on iPhone - Apple Support

Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone.
Tap Reset, tap Reset Home Screen Layout, then tap Reset Home Screen.
Any folders you’ve created are removed, and apps you’ve downloaded are arranged alphabetically after apps that came with your iPhone.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities!
