2nd Page of Homescreen spontaneously disappears

From time to time, for no apparent reason, the second page of my home screen on my 14 Pro and all the related apps disappears. I haven’t reset something, and I have it in advertently hidden it. When I look for the two taps, for the missing screen, it’s completely gone. This is happened several times in the past couple months, since I’ve upgraded my iOS to 16.3. What in the world has Apple screwed up with the release that is causing this? And no, it is not something I have accidentally done, because it does this when the phone is sitting on a table and this never happened until the IOS update.

I’ve discovered the source of the problem. When I use the sleep mode on focus, for whatever reason, that hides the second home screen worth of apps. It doesn’t even show up when I tap and hold the screen to view all the pages. When I take the sleep mode off, the second home screen of apps reappears. I’ve tried several times, and it works like that each time. I don’t know what it is about putting the focus on sleep that kills subsequent homepages, but that is definitely what is happening.

If you feel an unauthorized person/app is remotely accessing, controlling, or monitoring your device, then that is possible only if you have done one or more of the following Don'ts...

Don't hand over an iPhone to kids or to a stranger without Enabling Guided Access
Don't share Apple IDs
Don't Jailbreak
Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device
Don't give in to Phishing
Don't plug in your device for charging your device in Airports, Public Transport, or public places, and trust the device. Beware of Juice Jacking. (Especially in India)
Don't leave your iPhone unlocked and unattended in public places like offices, schools, malls, etc.

If one of the above is true then quickly change the Apple ID Password and Return iPhone settings to their defaults.
