Apps rearrange when I restart myipad

I downloaded the new iOS for my iPad. A lot of of my apps disappeared. They’re no where to be found. I had to go to the App screen to download them again. Also whenever I restart my iPad, my apps either go to a different Home Screen. I have to rearrange them all over again. What can I do to fix this?

Hello Sportsfem,


Let's use the steps below to check for and turn off any Focus that might be enabled:


1. Do any of the following:
• Touch and hold the Focus icon on the Lock Screen.
Open Control Center, then tap Focus.
2. Tap the Focus that’s on to turn it off.


You can also find those steps in this resource: Turn on or schedule a Focus on iPhone - Apple Support


We'd like to check on that as there is an option to customize and change your Home Screen when a Focus is active. The "Connect Home Screen pages to Focus" section of this resource has more details on that feature: Use Focus on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Let us know your results, and we'll keep moving forward from there.
