I’m trying to go to my Apple App Store but it says I need a link to get to the Apple App Store. It was on my phone but it’s not here no more and I’m trying to download the Guardian to stop the hackers from hacking on my phone and I’m having the hardest time can someone help me?
You just tap on the App Store app.
By the way, your question is not the same as the original poster who is being helped in this thread, plust this thread is 3 months old so probably nobody is paying attention to it. It is almost always best to start your own thread when you have a question.
