Apple weather app
My Apple weather app is no longer on my screen but in quick view. I moved it over but now is a different size than my other apps?

Hello layner11,
It sounds like you may have put the Weather widget on your Home Screen instead of the icon for the Weather app. If that is the case and you'd like to remove the widget, you can do so using the steps below:
1. Touch and hold the widget that you want to remove.
2. Tap Remove Widget.
3. Tap Remove again to confirm.
You can also find those steps in this resource: How to add and edit widgets on your iPhone - Apple Support
You should be able to use the App Library to reinstate the icon for the Weather app to your Home Screen per the steps below: Find your apps in App Library on iPhone - Apple Support
Find an app in App Library
1. Go to the Home Screen, then swipe left past all your Home Screen pages to get to App Library.
2. Tap the search field at the top of the screen, then enter the name of the app you’re looking for. Or scroll up and down to browse the alphabetical list.
Move an app from App Library to the Home Screen
You can add an app in App Library to the Home Screen, unless it’s already there.
Touch and hold the app, then tap Add to Home Screen (available only if the app isn’t already on the Home Screen).
The app appears on the Home Screen and in App Library.
Hopefully those steps and resources help address your situation.
Take care.
